In a recent decision, the Kerala High Court quashed a POCSO Act and rape case against a man after the victim herself married him and they were living peacefully. The court noted that continuing criminal proceedings in such unique circumstances may not serve any meaningful purpose when the relationship evolved into a stable marriage.
This is a rare but important ruling showing that courts consider real life circumstances and outcomes when deciding whether to allow criminal cases under serious laws like POCSO and rape provisions to continue. This judgment is significant for men facing prolonged legal battles stemming from old cases where the parties have reconciled and built a life together.
