The court's request came on June 27 through an order quashing a First Information Report (FIR) against a man who was accused of repeatedly raping a minor girl and impregnating her in 2020.
The court said the age of consent for females at 18 has "disturbed the fabric of society". As per the prosecution, the complainant was a minor in 2020 and would take coaching classes from the petitioner. She alleged that the petitioner once gave her a spiked drink, raped her and made a video of the sexual assault. He then allegedly raped her many times blackmailing her with the clip.
The court said boys and girls get attracted to each other owing to early puberty, which is ultimately 'resulting in consensual physical relationships', read the order.
