Aggrieved by the order of the Gujarat Government, Bilkis Bano filed a petition against the premature release of the convicts. During the 2002 communal riots in Godhra, the convicts had murdered 14 family members of then pregnant Bilkis Bano and had gangraped her.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\"><b>Also Read:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/post\/2023\/04\/20\/supreme-court-asks-centre-and-gujarat-government-to-produce-files-and-give-reasons-for-releasing-11-convicts-in-bilkis-bano-case-legal-research-legal-news-updates\/\">Bilkis Bano Case: SC asks Centre-State govt to produce record of reasons for releasing convicts<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">In the previous order of the Court, the Court had enquired the Gujarat Government about the reasons behind its decision to allow premature release of the 11 convicts and directed them to release the documents of the remission.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court noted that a pattern was developed to avoid the Bench from hearing the case, as the convicts had, one way or other, claimed that they were not served the notice. The Court said that it was obvious that the convicts did not want the Bench to hear the case. Further, the Court said that even after the said matter will be heard after a week, someone will say that they have not been served the notice and will seek more time to file the reply.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court also noted that the Gujarat Government and Centre did not claim &#8216;privilege&#8217; and had agreed to produce the remission records of the 11 convicts, when directed to do so.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court directed the petitioners to take steps to complete the service of the notice on the unserved respondents by including the <i>dasti<\/i> service through the concerned local police station.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Bilkis Yakub Rasool v.
