JUDEGEMENT

Case 10/2024 Summary: State of Gujarat vs. Maheshbhai Rajeshbhai Nayak In a Gujarat POCSO court judgment dated 27.04.2026, the accused Maheshbhai Rajeshbhai Nayak was acquitted of charges under IPC Sections 363, 366, 376(2)(n), 376(3) and POCSO Act Sections 4, 6, 12. The court found the prosecution failed to prove the victim was a minor (below 18 years), which is essential for POCSO offenses. The victim herself testified to a consensual relationship, marriage in a temple, and currently living with the accused—facts corroborating the defense that no abduction or forcible intercourse occurred. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
