A Delhi court had in December 2019 sentenced Sengar to imprisonment for the remainder of his life in the 2017 Unnao rape case. The CBI Court also imposed a fine of ₹25 lakh on Sengar.
The Unnao rape survivor, a minor, was allegedly kidnapped and raped by Sengar between June 11 to June 20, 2017. She was then sold for ₹60,000, after which she was recovered at the Maakhi police station.
The survivor was thereafter continuously threatened and warned by the police officials against speaking out, as instructed by Sengar.
An FIR finally came to be recorded against Sengar, and he was finally arrested pursuant to an order passed by the Allahabad High Court.
