    CASE SUMMARY: Crl.A. No. 72 of 2023 - Ram Pukar Roy v. State of Assam The Gauhati High Court upheld the conviction of Ram Pukar Roy under IPC Section 377 and POCSO Act Section 6 for penetrative sexual assault on a 5-year-old child. The court found the victim's testimony credible and consistent, rejected the appellant's defense of false implication due to a loan dispute, and dismissed arguments that procedural discrepancies (incorrect time of offense in charge) vitiated the trial. Medical evidence corroborating anal injuries and genital abrasion on the accused strengthened the prosecution case. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
