GUJARAT GOVERNMENT DIRECTED BY SUPREME COURT TO COMPENSATE THE GANG RAPE VICTIM WITH RS 50 LAKH AND A GOVERNMENT JOB

During the Gujarat riots in 2002, a girl was gang raped. Her age was 21 years at the time of incident and her 3 year old child was killed in the riots.

The police officers were convicted by the Gujarat High Court. Apart from the conviction, the victim sought disciplinary proceedings against these officials. The Gujarat Government had offered her a compensation of Rs 5 lakhs. But, rejecting the offer, the victim approached the Apex Court seeking exemplary compensation.

The Supreme Court, in response to her approach, has directed the Government of Gujarat to compensate the victim with Rs 50 lakhs and also to provide her with a government job.

The Supreme Court today directed the Gujarat Government to pay Rs 50 lakh compensation and to provide government job to a woman who was gang raped during Gujarat riots of 2002.
