The Bombay High Court acquitted a man in a 25-year-old case where he was accused of cheating after refusing to marry a woman with whom he had a sexual relationship. The court ruled that the refusal to marry is not cheating under Section 417 IPC, as there was no evidence of consent based on false promises.
