“The public prosecutor will fight the case on behalf of the CWC. We had appealed to CLAP Legal Service Institute – an association of High Court advocates – pertaining to this case. We have given them authorization to contest the case on behalf of the victim in the High Court,” said CWC member Benudhar Senapati speaking to reporters today.
