"The SIT could submit its report to the government by today evening," a source said.

The SIT was supposed to submit its report earlier on October 7, but following the directions of Adityanath, it's submission date was extended by 10 days.

 

The 19-year-old Hathras woman died at Delhi's Safdarjung Hospital on September 29.

The SIT probe was ordered on September 30 after a 19-year-old woman succumbed to her injuries a day earlier, following a brutal assault by four men in UP's Hathras village.

All four accused in the incident have been arrested.

Meanwhile, the Central Bureau of Investigation is also probing the case.
