A Maharashtra judicial officer will face trial under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act after the Supreme Court refused to quash the charges against him. He’s accused of molesting his minor daughter over a four-year period, from 2014 to 2018.
The Bombay High Court previously dismissed the officer’s petition to quash the First Information Report (FIR). Their decision hinged on the compelling nature of the daughter’s statement given to a magistrate. This statement, along with other evidence, will now be considered during the trial.
The case highlights the ongoing battle against child sexual abuse and the importance of holding individuals accountable, regardless of their position or status. The Supreme Court’s decision underscores its commitment to upholding the law and protecting vulnerable children.
