The Supreme Court on Friday stayed a Rajasthan High Court order asking a rape accused's wife, employed in the US, to remain in India as a "collateral" if he wished to travel abroad for a job.
A bench of Justices Sanjay Kumar and Satish Chandra Sharma issued notice to the Rajasthan government in the matter on the appeal filed by a software engineer, accused of raping a woman on the promise of marriage. The SC further directed the man to deposit ₹2 lakh as surety for foreign travel.
According to the prosecution, the man was booked on rape charges by Christianganj police station in Ajmer after it was alleged that he met a woman on a matrimonial website and maintained close acquaintance with her for four years on the promise of marriage.
