Today, On 11th August, Supreme Court directed the Delhi government to “submit a detailed report explaining how bail was granted and how the state opposed it” in cases linked to a large-scale interstate child trafficking racket involving kidnapped children sold across several states.
The Supreme Court reaffirmed the conviction of an accused in a 1984 rape case, stating that the absence of injuries on the victim’s private parts does not automatically weaken the prosecution’s case. The court dismissed an appeal challenging the previous decision, which had upheld the conviction under Sections 376 (rape) and 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) of the IPC. Emphasizing the importance of overall evidence, the court ruled that physical injuries are not the sole determinant of sexual assault cases.
Today, On 7th February, The Supreme Court ruled that relatives of an accused cannot be implicated in domestic violence cases under Section 498A simply for not assisting the victim. The Court emphasized that complaints and charges must be specific against each accused family member. It stated that vague or general allegations are not sufficient for prosecution. This decision aims to prevent misuse of the law and ensure fairness in such cases.
