The Supreme Court set aside the rape conviction of a man, noting the case arose from a consensual relationship that soured and turned criminal. “Sixth Sense Suggests They Might Reconcile,” the court observed, citing a unique reason.
The Supreme Court dismissed a rape case against a man who was accused after a 16-year-long relationship. The court ruled that the case stemmed from a failed love affair rather than criminal intent. Emphasizing the need to differentiate between consent and allegations of coercion, the bench found no grounds for prosecution. The verdict highlights concerns over misuse of legal provisions in personal disputes.
