Court extends Judicial custody of three accused for 14 days in Astha Kunj Gang rape case

New Delhi [India], October 08 (ANI): The Saket court on Thursday extended the judicial custody of three accused arrested in the Astha Kunj Park gang rape case. Delhi Police arrested three accused, namely Hemant, Mukesh and Asif, in a POCSO case.
