Consensual sex with girl on verge of turning 18 not offence: HC
Madras high court CHENNAI: A man's consensual sex with a girl, who was just 19 days short of turning 18 years old, cannot be an offence under the Pocso Act, ruled Madras high court, acquitting the man of all charges. He had been sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for five years by a trial court in Coimbatore. Reversing the trial court ruling, Justice GK Ilanthiraiyan said the girl was capable of understanding the consequences of her actions and that her age at the time of the incident could not be proved beyond doubt. "There is nothing in the evidence to show that the appellant took away or enticed the victim to flee with him. Therefore, the charge under section 363 of IPC is not made out against the appellant. Further, the family members of the victim were aware that the victim was having a love affair with the appellant,' said the judge.
