Case History
Summary: The Supreme Court allowed Naveen Shetty's appeal against the Karnataka High Court's judgment convicting him of rape (Section 376, IPC). Medical evidence showed no signs of rape—no external injuries, genital injuries, or sperm found. The Court gave benefit of doubt on the rape charge but found him guilty of outraging modesty (Section 354, IPC), sentencing him to time already served. His bail bonds were discharged.
