As per case facts, the prosecutrix alleged that Harjeet Singh, a labourer, repeatedly raped and sexually exploited her, threatening her with violence and video dissemination. She reported it to her
...husband, leading to an FIR for rape and criminal intimidation. The Trial Court acquitted the accused, finding false implication. The prosecutrix appealed to the High Court, asserting the acquittal was erroneous and against the evidence. The question arose whether the Trial Court rightly concluded that the accused was falsely implicated and not guilty of rape and criminal intimidation. Finally, the High Court, scrutinizing testimonies and evidence like medical reports and DNA, found significant inconsistencies and improvements in the prosecutrix's statement, an unexplained delay in reporting, and a consensual relationship, concluding that the prosecution failed to prove guilt. The High Court upheld the acquittal, dismissing the appeal.
