Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions under Sections 363, 366, and 376 IPC, affirming the High Court's decision which approved the Additional Sessions Judge's sentencing of three years for kidnapping, five years for abduction, and ten years for rape, all to run concurrently. The Court emphasized the importance of the victim's testimony and corroborative evidence in sexual assault cases, establishing that the prosecution must prove the elements of the crime beyond reasonable doubt. The appeals were dismissed, affirming the lower court's findings and sentences.
