Bilkis Bano Case: SC Issues Notice to Gujarat, Maharashtra on Convicts' Appeal
•
Supreme Court issues notices to Gujarat and Maharashtra after two convicts in the Bilkis Bano case challenged their life sentences.
•
Bipinchand Kanaiyalal Joshi and Pradip Ramanlal Modhiya filed a petition against their conviction for murder and gang rape.
•
The petition challenges the May 4, 2017 Bombay High Court judgment that upheld the conviction and life imprisonment of 11 accused.

The case is linked to the 2002 Gujarat riots, where Bilkis Bano, then pregnant, was gang-raped and her family members killed.

The trial was transferred to Maharashtra, and a special court convicted all 11 accused; their remission by Gujarat was later set aside by SC.
