TAKING exception to an Allahabad High Court judge's recent remarks in a rape case that the rape survivor herself "invited trouble", the Supreme Court on Tuesday cautioned judges against making such inappropriate observations against the complainant.
The apex court made the remarks while hearing a suo motu cognizance case initiated by it in a different matter in which the Allahabad HC had on March 17 held that acts of grabbing a child victim's breasts, breaking the string of her pyjama did not constitute the offence of rape or attempt to rape.
