Court Grants Final Chance to Accused in Akhlaq Lynching Case to Submit Transfer Documents

The 2015 Mohammed Akhlaq lynching case is currently under judicial review regarding a transfer petition filed by the accused. The Gautam Buddha Nagar district judge granted the defence a final opportunity to submit supporting documents, scheduling the next hearing for January 22. Meanwhile, the fast-track court has fixed January 23 for further testimony, with statements from Akhlaq's wife and son pending. The case remains a priority following the rejection of the Uttar Pradesh government's plea to withdraw charges.
