NEW DELHI: Delhi HC Friday extended until March 11 the interim bail granted to Unnao rape convict Kuldeep Sengar's brother Jaideep Sengar, who is serving a 10-year jail sentence in connection with the murder of the survivor's father. Justice Vikas Mahajan gave relief to Jaideep on medical grounds, saying he was suffering from mouth cancer and undergoing treatment.

HC had earlier granted him interim bail till February 18. Jaideep's counsel sought the suspension of the jail term and urged court to grant him interim relief until the issue was decided. The court issued notice to CBI, and directed a status report to be filed, while extending the interim relief for three weeks.
