UNNAO: The father of the Unnao rape victim died in judicial custody even as jail officials and doctors kept exchanging letters over five days without giving him any treatment, a correspondence accessed by ET has revealed.

The correspondence revealed that the rape victim’s father had serious injuries on April 4 evening when he was first sent to Unnao jail from the district hospital.

The jail doctor, a basic MBBS doctor who treats normal ailments, wrote a letter to the police authorities on April 5 that the person needed urgent medical treatment and that no such facilities were available in jail for the same. The injured person was still not shifted to hospital, and instead two physicians from the hospital visited the jail on April 6 and recommended advanced treatment after examining him.
