Case History
Summary of State of Himachal Pradesh v. Jai Nand (Crl.A. No. 985-987/2000) The Supreme Court allowed the State's appeals and reinstated convictions against three accused persons for kidnapping, abduction, and gang rape of a 14½-year-old girl in May 1996. The Court set aside the High Court's acquittal, finding the High Court had erred in disbelieving the victim's testimony and in determining her age. While confirming convictions under IPC Sections 363 and 366, the Court reduced the rape sentence from 10 years to 5 years imprisonment, directing immediate surrender of the respondents.
