Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 366 and Section 376 IPC, affirming the High Court's decision which confirmed a three-year rigorous imprisonment sentence on each count to run concurrently. The Court established that the prosecution successfully proved the elements of kidnapping and rape, as the appellant misled the prosecutrix into his truck and subsequently committed the offense. The evidence, including medical examinations revealing semen and spermatozoa, supported the conviction.
