A WOMAN’S BODY IS NOT A MAN’S PLAYTHING ...........................

The Hon’ble Supreme Court in case of State of U.P. vs Naushad  (2013) 16 SCC 651 while dealing with the factual matrix of the case where accused had physical sexual relations with the victim after obtaining the consent on false promise of marriage observed:-

“A WOMAN’S BODY IS NOT A MAN’S PLAYTHING AND HE CANNOT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT IN ORDER TO SATISFY HIS LUST AND DESIRES BY FOOLING A WOMAN INTO CONSENTING TO SEXUAL INTERCOURSE SIMPLY BECAUSE HE WANTS TO INDULGE IN IT. THE ACCUSED IN THIS CASE HAS COMMITTED THE VILE ACT OF RAPE AND DESERVES TO BE SUITABLY PUNISHED FOR IT.”
