The Supreme Court is going to hear on the petition of Mukesh Kumar Singh, who has been sentenced to death in the Nirbhaya case. At the same time, Mukesh has challenged the mercy petition to be dismissed. The bench of Justice R Bhanumathi, Justice Ashok Bhushan and Justice AS Bopanna is scheduled to hear the petition at 12:30 pm. On the demand for an early hearing on the petition on Monday morning, a three-member bench headed by Chief Justice SA Bobde said, "If anyone is to be hanged on February 1, the petition needs to be heard immediately." It does not necessarily do anything. The bench asked Mukesh's lawyer to refer the petition to the registry. Mukesh's mercy petition has been rejected by President Ram Nath Kovind on 17 January. On Saturday, he filed a petition in the Supreme Court demanding that the death sentence be commuted to life imprisonment.
