Bilkis Bano has moved the Supreme court challenging the premature release of 11 convicts, who had gang-raped her & murdered her family members during the 2002 Godhra riots.
Bano filed a review plea against the May order of SC which allowed Gujarat govt to apply 1992 Remission Policy.
Responding to the petition of one of the convicts, the apex court had earlier said that the Gujarat government can release convicts under a 1991 remission policy.
Bilkis Bano was 21 years old and five-month pregnant when she was gang-raped while fleeing the riots that broke out after the Godhra train burning incident. Her three-year-old daughter was among the seven family members killed.
The 11 men convicted in the case walked out of the Godhra sub-jail on August 15 after the Gujarat government allowed their release under its remission policy. They had completed more than 15 years in jail.
