As per case facts, appellants Mumtaz and Ringa Hasda were convicted for kidnapping and gang rape of a minor prosecutrix, who was 14 years and 6 months old. The prosecutrix ... was enticed away, forcibly taken to Ludhiana, confined, and repeatedly raped, resulting in pregnancy which was later terminated. DNA evidence linked Mumtaz to the pregnancy. The accused appealed, arguing false implication, consensual relations, and that the prosecutrix was an adult. The question arose whether the trial court's conviction was justified given the evidence, particularly regarding the prosecutrix's age and the nature of the acts. Finally, the High Court dismissed the appeal, upholding the conviction by relying on the prosecutrix's school records establishing her minority and strong DNA evidence, confirming the abduction and gang rape.
