MINOR OR WOMEN WITH UNSOUND MIND RAPE VICTIMS DEPOSITION NOT MUST IF ALL EVIDENCES PROVE GUILTY: SUPREME COURT

The Supreme Court said that a person accused of sexually assaulting a minor or a woman of unsound mind can be convicted without the rape survivor being cross-examined to corroborate her charges if other evidence was sufficient to prove guilt, and quashed an order of the Bombay High Court, which had acquitted the accused because of non-examination of the rape survivor by the trial court and sentenced the accused to seven years' imprisonment for raping a mentally challenged deaf and mute minor girl near Nagpur in 2008.
