Shrawan S/O Atmaram Sisode vs State Of Maharashtra And Anr.

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction under Section 376 IPC for the appellant, affirming the High Court's decision which sentenced him to 7 years of rigorous imprisonment and a fine of Rs. 10,000. The Court emphasized the importance of the complainant's testimony and the corroborative evidence provided by the husband, who was assaulted when he confronted the appellant. The judgment reinforced that the failure of police to act on initial complaints does not negate the validity of the subsequent judicial complaint, thus maintaining the conviction.
