The high court had upheld the death sentence awarded to the four convicts on March 13.
In the horrific gangrape, a 23-year-old physiotherapy student was gnagraped by six men inside a private bus on the roads of Delhi.
A trial court held Mukesh, Pawan, Vinay Sharma and Akshay Thakur guilty on September 10, 2013 and they were awarded the death sentence after being charged with murder, attempt to murder, gangrape, kidnapping and unnatural acts.
While the fifth accused, Ram Singh, committed suicide in Delhi's Tihar jail, the juvenile was sent to a correctional home for three years, the maximum under the Juvenile Justice Act.
