"We will file the chargesheet within a week," a senior police official said.

Sources said Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar conveyed this at a meeting convened by Lt Governor Tejinder Khanna with women's groups here.

The move comes against the backdrop of clamour for speedy trial in the case of 23-year-old women, who was brutally sexually assaulted and tortured allegedly by the six men in a moving bus on December 16 night. Her male friend was also beaten up while trying to protect her.

The incident rocked the conscience of the nation and triggered violent protests in the capital.

Government had already announced that they will request Delhi High Court to set up fast track court for this case.

 

Home Minister Sushikumar Shinde had said that police will seek day-to-day hearing of the case.
