'Friendship not licence to rape': HC junks anticipatory bail plea
Hindustan Times
|October 24, 2025
Friendship cannot be construed as a licence to rape, confine, or assault a woman repeatedly, the Delhi High Court has held while denying anticipatory bail to a man accused of raping a 17-year-old girl.
The man had contended that they were in a consensual relationship.
The verdict was delivered by a bench of justice Swarana Kanta Sharma on October 17 while dealing with the man’s plea seeking anticipatory bail in a case registered against him under various provisions of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, including rape and Section 4 (penetrative sexual assault) of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act.
