The Delhi High Court has granted interim bail to Kuldeep Singh Sengar, an expelled BJP leader and convict in the Unnao rape case, allowing him to undergo eye surgery.

A bench comprising Justices Yashwant Varma and Harish Vaidyanathan Shankar has temporarily suspended Sengar's life sentence, ordering him to surrender on February 5 post-surgery.

This development is part of Sengar's ongoing legal battles, including his appeal against convictions in related cases, like the custodial death of the rape survivor's father.
