MOTI LAL vs STATE OF M.P.

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Sections 450 and 376(1) IPC, affirming the five and seven years of rigorous imprisonment imposed by the High Court. The Court emphasized that the prosecution's case was supported by the testimony of the prosecutrix and corroborated by medical evidence, establishing the elements of the offences. The appeal was dismissed, reinforcing the legal principle that the testimony of the victim, if credible, can be sufficient for conviction in sexual assault cases.
