New Delhi, Aug 22: The Supreme Court Thursday allowed the Juvenile Justice Board to go ahead with the pronouncement of its verdict on the alleged involvement of a juvenile accused in the December 16 Delhi gangrape case.

The apex court bench headed by Chief Justice P. Sathasivam, however, said that it would examine the larger issue of immunity granted to a juvenile accused involved in heinous offences from being tried under the normal criminal laws.
