Hence, Supreme Court should reconsider the mercy petition.Mukesh's lawyer also added that, he was sexually assaulted in jail and his brother Ram Singh was murdered.
While giving verdict on Wednesday, Supreme Court said that for our satisfaction we looked at all the documents which were placed before the President and were taken into consideration. The Home Ministry had sent all the documents. Harassment in prison is no basis for mercy.So the mercy plea of Mukesh has been dismissed.
