The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Neku Khan under Sections 376, 147, 323/149, 342, 458, and 366 IPC, affirming the findings of the Rajasthan High Court. The Court established that the prosecution proved the elements of abduction and rape beyond reasonable doubt, rejecting the defense's claim of marriage between the victim and the appellant. The Court held that the testimonies of the witnesses corroborated the prosecution's case, leading to the dismissal of the appeal and affirmation of the conviction.
