In Brief
In this writ petition concerning a victim's rehabilitation, the Supreme Court examined whether an affidavit filed by a government authority (respondent No. 2) constituted a proper apology as ordered by the Court earlier. The Court found the affidavit insufficient and rejected it, directing the authority to file a fresh affidavit complying with the previous order. The Court also noted that the authority wished to use 'remorse' instead of 'apology,' but deferred deciding this terminology question to the next hearing. Meanwhile, the Court acknowledged the Union's commitment to admit the victim to a central school."
