Mumbai: A lawyer hailing from Chattisgarh consumed phenyl in the Supreme Court premises claiming that justice has been denied to her as a victim of gangrape. She took the extreme step as she was gangraped by her relatives in November 2013 in her home state.
The apex court has posted the matter for hearing on Tuesday and has taken suo motu cognizance of the suicide bid by the lawyer.
The lawyer was rushed to Ram Manohar Lohia hospital after her preliminary treatment at the Supreme Court dispensary.
