The Supreme Court has stayed the Delhi High Court's bail order for former UP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar, who was convicted under the POCSO Act. The apex court expressed judicial discomfort with the High Court's narrow interpretation of 'public servant' under the POCSO Act, which relied on an older IPC definition. The Supreme Court indicated that legislators' roles and the distinct purpose of the POCSO Act warrant a broader consideration of 'public duty' beyond executive service.
