The NCW report said the 8216;8216;ends of justice would be better served if the hearing of the case is held outside the state of Uttaranchal. In this case, it is a matter where the influential minister had the state government facilitating his cause against a hapless rape victim8217;8217;.

Stating that there seemed to be no basis for keeping Jenny in a protective home, the NCW said Jenny should be permitted to live her own life or sent home as demanded by her.

The NCW has also recommended adequate compensation for Jenny as well as her son, Anjan, for the mental harassment she suffered during her pregnancy and for wrongful confinement.
