After a Supreme Court order, six Jammu and Kashmir policemen were arrested for brutally torturing a fellow policeman. The apex court described it as the “most barbaric instance of police atrocity,” sparking shock and raising serious questions of accountability.
The Supreme Court has ruled that in cases under Section 376 IPC, a rape victim’s credible and trustworthy testimony will prevail over the absence or insufficiency of medical evidence, provided her story is found to be creditworthy.
