POCSO: Victim’s contradictory statements cannot form the basis for quashing criminal proceedings but Trial court must careful on misusing this Act
POCSO is an individual crime further related parties were married and having a child together hence the case is quashed
No immediate complaint was made and the hymen was intact therefore the conviction and sentence under Section 9(m) read with Section 10 of POCSO cannot be upheld
Though conviction shall not be based on an extra-judicial confession but in the case on hand the prosecution has proved the murder through other evidence beyond all reasonable doubts
Remember me
