casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: BAUWA v. STATE OF U.P. (SLP(Crl) 2554/2013) Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petition on April 8, 2013. The Court upheld the High Court's rejection of the petitioners' application for DNA testing of the accused to determine paternity of a child allegedly conceived through rape. The Court held that identifying the biological father is irrelevant to establishing charges under Section 376 IPC (rape) and does not prejudice the accused's defence.
