Woman’s word not ‘sterling’ evidence in rape case, says Calcutta high court
Thursday, 30 November 2023 Calcutta High Court states that the testimony of a woman rape complainant cannot universally be considered a 'sterling' evidence due to instances of false, malicious, or vengeful motives. The court grants an appeal against a person's 2007 conviction for rape and trespassing due to lack of proof beyond reasonable doubt. The judgment acknowledges that a victim of rape is generally considered a 'sterling witness' but cautions against universal categorization. The court highlights instances of false allegations for malicious intent and revenge. The prosecution failed to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt, and the conviction is set aside.
