Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the conviction of the accused-appellant under Sections 363, 366, and 376 read with Section 511 IPC for kidnapping and attempted rape of a five-year-old girl. The Court upheld the convictions under Sections 363 and 366 IPC, affirming the trial court's reliance on eyewitness testimony, while it set aside the conviction under Section 376 read with Section 511 IPC due to insufficient evidence. The Court emphasized the need for corroborative evidence in sexual assault cases involving minors.
