Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh): Advocate Seema Kushwaha, representing the Hathras victim said that her family should be provided with permanent accommodation in Delhi.
Lawyer demands accommodation for Hathras victim's family in Delhi The Lucknow bench of the Allahabad High Court will hear the case of permanent accommodation in Delhi on Monday.
"We filed an affidavit on October 24. I hope that the court will consider my demands as mentioned in the affidavit. Our demand is that the chief minister promised a job to one family member but nothing has been done so far. The other is that the family should be provided with permanent accommodation in Delhi as Hathras is influenced by upper caste and the family is Dalit," Kushwaha said.
She said that the demand for protection to the family has been fulfilled while adding that officials related to the case should be terminated.
Kushwaha said that post-mortem has confirmed that the victim was raped.
