The Allahabad High Court granted bail to a man accused of r@pe, observing that a s**ually experienced married woman’s lack of resistance may imply consent unless substantial evidence suggests otherwise.
The case involved a widow alleging her brother-in-law exploited her on the promise of marriage, leading to pregnancy and coercion into an abortion. However, inconsistencies like no medical proof and refusal of internal examination raised doubts.
Justice Sanjay Kumar Singh highlighted the woman’s life experience and the absence of evidence to corroborate coercion.
