The Division bench of Justices Jayant Patel and Mohinder Pal rejected the appeals of all five accused who had prayed to quash and set aside the sessions court order of June 2008.
The victim, hailing from a middle class family, committed suicide by hanging herself in her room on January 7, 2004, a week after the crime on December 31, 2003.
She was also branded with cigarettes and was badly beaten up.
According to her complaint, she was gangraped by six people, all of whom were either relatives or friends of her boyfriend Sajal, present in the hotel room.
Upholding the trial court order, HC observed, "This court is of the opinion that sexual inter course was committed by force and that too in barbaric manner which was not only heinous but it had destroyed the dignity and identity of the victim."
"Hence the court declines to interfere with the decision of the sessions court," it said rejecting their petition.
