Nirbhaya case: How lawyer AP Singh made last-minute run to save convicts from hanging

Lawyer AP Singh resorted to all sorts of tactics even on the last day, and in fact the last minute as he knocked the doors of the Supreme Court and Delhi High Court for late-night hearing. However, none got the convicts any reprieve. After almost 45 minutes of the hearing, a special three-judge bench of the Supreme Court on Friday dismissed the plea of Pawan Kumar Gupta, a death row convict in Nirbhaya gang rape and murder case, challenging the rejection of mercy plea by the President.
