Nodeep Kaur, a 23-year-old Dalit labourer and trade union activist from Punjab who has been behind bars in Haryana since last month, will stay in jail for now after she was granted bail in one of three cases filed against her but rejected in another. The young woman was arrested on January 12 when she had joined a protest by labourers at Haryana's Kundli and has allegedly suffered sexual abuse while in custody.
