Delhi hc rejected bail plea of ​​a father accused of Daughter Sexual Harassment Ann

Delhi hc news: Delhi High Court has rejected a person’s bail plea, which has serious allegations of sexual harassment with his minor daughter. The court said in its judgment that protecting the rights of children is the essential duty of the judiciary. Especially when their parents themselves do not stand in their support. The petitioner father claimed that the case was coined due to personal disputes by his wife. However, the marital dispute between husband and wife was already resolved.

Delhi HC’s strict comment

Justice Swarna Kanta Sharma of the Delhi High Court said that the victims of sexual harassment, especially minors, have independent legal rights, which cannot be ignored due to mutual quarrels of parents. The Delhi High Court said in its judgment that the rights of every child are legally recognized. If parents are not supporting their child themselves, it is the responsibility of the court to listen to their voice and protect their rights.

13 -year -old emphasis on victim’s rights

The victim of the case is only 13 years old. The court clarified that he could not be denied his right to demand justice because there was a dispute between his parents. Only on the basis that there was tension in the relationship of parents, the victim’s complaint cannot be denied. Especially when the crisis was called by the minor himself and his mother was also accused of not reporting the incident of sexual harassment to the police.

Delhi HC’s trend on serious allegations

The Delhi High Court clarified that even in cases related to intimate relations, the victim has every right to file a complaint. An earlier agreement does not affect serious allegations and the accused does not get any legal immunity. The case reflects a very sad and serious situation, where a minor girl has not only suffered a victim of her parents, but is also accusing her own father of being a victim of sexual harassment. At present, the court rejected the bail plea of ​​the accused keeping in mind all the facts.
