FAST-TRACK COURT LAUNCHED IN INDIA GANG-RAPE TRAIL

NEW DELHI, India -  Chief Justice of India, Altamas Kabir, inaugurated Delhi’s first fast-track court to hear the December 16 gang-rape case of the 23-year-old victim who died in a Singapore hospital last week.
The fast-track court is located in South Delhi’s Saket court complex. Three other fast-track courts have also been set up at Dwarka, Rohini and Tis Hazari court complexes. 

All four courts will take up cases of violence against women and become functional from tomorrow.
Delhi police have finalised a 1,000-page charge sheet against the six accused, including a juvenile. Report on his bone tests undertaken to determine his exact age is expected Thursday.

The juvenile was two months short of turning adult when he along with five others attacked the physiotherapy student on a moving bus.

Delhi Police had earlier invoked murder charges against the six men allegedly involved in the gang rape of the 23-year-old girl in a moving bus after she died in a Singapore hospital on December 29.
