Following, abusing a woman not offence of outraging modesty: High Court

IndiaTimes Monday, 1 January 2024
Following, abusing and pushing a woman might be "annoying" acts, but did not constitute the offence of outraging the modesty under IPC Section 354, the Nagpur bench of Bombay HC ruled, and granted relief to a man convicted by the judicial magistrate first class court at Wardha. Justice Anil Pansare acquitted the appellant, a 36-year-old labourer, saying the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. A college student had filed a police complaint against the man alleging that he had followed her a couple of times and abused her.
