The charge sheet in the gang rape was filed before District Judge Dharmesh Sharma. The court listed the case for 10 October after the investigative agency sought time to file additional documents and list of witnesses to be examined in support of the prosecution version. The CBI has named three persons as accused in the charge sheet — Naresh Tiwari, Brijesh Yadav Singh and Shubham Singh. All three are out on bail. According to the charge sheet, the three had allegedly kidnapped and gang-raped the woman a week after the 4 June incident. Shubham Singh is the son of Shashi Singh, who had allegedly lured the woman to the MLA’s residence on 4 June and is a co-accused in that matter.
