The Rapist Jayesh Patel has prayed for a copy of the medical reports to be given to him under section 207 CrPC, which were purported to prove the crime of rape he committed. His prayer was denying by the Gujarat High Court stating that the accused will be entitled to such documents during the course of trial and may not be available at the current stage where he would like to file Discharge petition u/s 239 CrPC.
