NEW DELHI: A court in Delhi on Wednesday convicted expelled BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar of culpable homicide not amounting to murder in the death of the Unnao rape victim's father.
The rape victim's father had died in judicial custody on April 9, 2018.

Charges were framed against 10 people, including Sengar, in the custodial death case.
The rape victim's father had died in custody in Unnao on April 9, 2018. The family accused Sengar of killing her.
