Case No. 167 of 2021 registered for the alleged offences under Sections 376, 511, 457, 341 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 8 of the POCSO Act.

As per prosecution case, the petitioner made an attempt to rape the minor sister of the informant and during scuffle, he was beaten by the informant and received injuries.

The present case is counter blast of Mohiuddin Nagar P.S. Case No. 182 of 2021 which was lodged by the petitioner against the informant and others under Section 307 of the Indian Penal Code and other allied Sections wherein it has been alleged that the informant and others assaulted the petitioner who received grievous injuries. On the facts of this case, it has been submitted by the learned counsel that the medical examination of the victim girl was not done and so it is not possible to say that she was sexually assaulted or what was her age.
