Gujarat Riot Survivor Bilkis Bano's 20-Year Wait For Justice Is Reopened—Again—In The Supreme Court

Moving home 30 times in 20 years, the last time in August 2022, after the Gujarat government freed 11 of those who raped her and murdered her family.

Bilkis Bano's long haul for justice stood in for all the hundreds who were raped and killed in 2002. She is back at the Supreme Court, refusing to give up.

The Supreme Court questioned the Gujarat government Tuesday over its decision to prematurely release 11 men convicted of the gangrape of Bilkis Bano and the murder of 14 of her family members during the 2002 Gujarat riots.

“The question is whether the government applied its mind and what material formed the basis of its decision to grant remission,” said Justice K M Joseph.
