Delhi court acquits man charged for rape 9 yrs ago due to lack of credible testimony

A Delhi court has acquitted a man who was charged with rape nine years ago, citing a lack of credible testimony and reliable evidence. The judgment brings to light the critical need for robust and consistent evidence in sexual assault cases to ensure justice is served.

The case, which dates back to 2015, involved allegations of rape made by the complainant against the accused. However, over the course of the trial, inconsistencies in the complainant’s testimony and a lack of corroborating evidence led to doubts about the veracity of the charges.

In his judgment, Additional Sessions Judge Arvind Kumar emphasized the necessity of credible and consistent testimony in criminal cases, particularly those involving serious charges such as rape. “The prosecution has failed to provide sufficient and credible evidence to substantiate the allegations against the accused,” Judge Kumar stated. “In the absence of reliable testimony, the benefit of the doubt must go to the accused.”

The court noted several discrepancies in the complainant’s statements, which undermined the prosecution’s case. Additionally, the lack of forensic evidence and witness corroboration further weakened the allegations.

The acquittal has sparked discussions about the challenges faced in prosecuting sexual assault cases. Legal experts highlighted the importance of thorough investigations and the collection of strong evidence to support victims’ claims. They also stressed the need for sensitivity and support for survivors throughout the legal process to ensure their testimonies are consistent and reliable.

The accused, who spent nearly a decade fighting the charges, expressed relief at the verdict. “I have maintained my innocence from the beginning,” he said. “This has been a long and difficult journey, but I am grateful that the truth has finally prevailed.”

Advocates for women’s rights acknowledged the complexities of such cases but reiterated the importance of ensuring that the judicial process is fair and just for all parties involved. They called for continued efforts to improve the legal framework and support systems for survivors of sexual assault.
