Supreme Court Grants Bail to Rape Accused, Questions Delhi Police
Imagine someone is accused of something bad, and they've been in jail for a long time without a trial.
The highest court, the Supreme Court, decided they could go free temporarily.
The court was puzzled why the police called it rape because the woman seemed to go with him willingly.
The court also pointed out that the woman went to a place with the accused seven times, and her husband didn't seem to mind.
Now, while the case is investigated further, the accused is free, but must follow court rules.
The Supreme Court granted interim bail to a 23-year-old accused of rape.
The court questioned the Delhi Police's basis for filing the rape case.
The woman, aged 40, had voluntarily traveled with the accused.
The accused had been in jail for nine months without charges being framed.
The court observed that 'a single hand can't clap'.
