A court ruled that sending messages like “you are slim, smart, and fair” to an unknown woman at night constitutes obscenity. Such remarks can be intrusive and unwelcome, violating personal boundaries. The judgment highlights the importance of respecting privacy and consent in communication. Unsolicited compliments, especially at odd hours, may be deemed inappropriate and offensive.
The Delhi High Court dismissed a case against a man accused of sending obscene messages to a woman, ordering him to complete three months of community service and imposing a Rs 25,000 fine. Additionally, the man must plant 50 trees in his locality and take care of them. Failure to comply will result in further legal action.
Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa, along with his friend Pavithra Gowda and other co-accused, has had their judicial custody extended until July 18 in the Renukaswamy murder case. The victim, a fan of Darshan, was allegedly murdered after sending offensive messages to Pavithra. This highly-publicized case continues to unfold with ongoing investigation and legal battles.
The Bombay High Court emphasized the need to impose heavy costs on individuals wasting the time of investigative agencies and courts. The court’s observation came during a bail plea hearing for a man accused of rape, where the accused and victim had resolved their differences. The court expressed concern over unnecessary FIR registrations and court time wastage.
