"Jharkhand High Court Rules: Rape Victim's Testimony Valid Without Medical Evidence, But Courts Must Beware of False Accusations"

Key Takeaways:

- Sexual assaults, which often occur in private, do not always require corroboration.
- A victim's testimony should not be dismissed solely due to lack of medical evidence, unless there are significant unusual factors.
- The court must be vigilant to prevent false implications against the accused.
- A single reliable witness can be sufficient proof in a case.
- Corroboration is not always necessary, as sexual assaults are typically not committed in public.

Case Details:

- The accused was convicted of raping a 13-year-old girl and threatening her against reporting the incident.
- The FIR was lodged 18 days after the incident.
- The trial court erred by sentencing the accused under both Section 376 of the IPC and Section 4 of the POCSO Act.
- The High Court set aside the conviction due to inconsistencies in the prosecution's case, lack of corroboration, and delay in lodging the FIR.

Court's Observations:

- The prosecution's case had serious inconsistencies, casting doubt on witness credibility.
- Three different versions emerged from the prosecution's case.
- The contradictions, lack of medical evidence, and delay in lodging the FIR rendered the prosecution's case doubtful.
