A Delhi court today dismissed a petition by Vinay Sharma, one of the four death row convicts in the Nirbhaya gang rape and murder case, seeking treatment for "mental illness".

Tihar Jail authorities have filed their response in a Delhi court on the application filed by one of the death row convicts in the Nirbhaya case -- Vinay Sharma -- claiming insanity and informed that there is no medical history of mental instability.

One of the four Nirbhaya case convicts to be hanged on March 3, Vinay Sharma, was injured after he reportedly banged his head against the wall of his cell at Tihar jail in Delhi. He has approached the court for high level medical treatment for "grievous head injury, fracture in his right arm, mental illness and schizophrenia."

Amid outrage over the delay in hanging four people convicted in the Nirbhaya gang rape and murder case, the Supreme Court has come out with guidelines to ensure that criminal appeals involving the death penalty are heard and settled at the earliest.
