NEW DELHI (RNS, 1504-25): The Supreme Court is scheduled to adjudicate on April 17, a plea filed by a senior police officer seeking to quash a rape case filed against him after the delay of ten years.

The FIR was allegedly registered at a different place, away from where the crime had taken place.
The accused, Somesh Kumar Mishra, a former trainee DSP presently working as DSP in Bihar's Gopalganj, has filed a Special Leave Petition (SLP) in the top court seeking to quash the FIR against him.
Mishra moved SC after the Patna High Court in 2022 refused to quash the FIR against him.
According to the prosecution, Mishra is accused of sexually assaulting the victim at gunpoint between the years 2009 and 2012.
According to Mishra's lawyer Shailendra Mani Tripathi, the case against him was initiated without the due process of law.
