The Gujarat High Court has reserved its order on the bail applications of the six teachers convicted in the Patan gangrape case, till Tuesday. The Patan Fast-Track Court had sentenced them to life imprisonment for raping a Dalit girl student of the Primary Teachers’ Training College in Patan.

Manish Parmar, Ashwin Parmar, Mahendra Prajapati, Suresh Patel, Kiran Patel and Atul Patel were convicted of gangrape, criminal conspiracy and allied charges. Kiran, who is physically challenged, was also convicted for unnatural sex.

Besides the sentences, a fine of Rs 10,000 was slapped on each one of the convicted, which they were supposed to pay to the victim as compensation.

The convicts had challenged the March verdict in the High Court and had also applied for bail.

On Monday, a Division Bench of justices A L Dave and J C Upadhyay heard the applications and reserved the order till Tuesday.
