The POCSO court had said the accused’s bail application would be considered only if he marries the woman, the jail official said.
An Odisha jail doubled as a venue for solemnisation of marriage when an inmate accused of rape tied the knot with the complainant following court orders, officials said.
“Under Trial Prisoner Rajesh Singh (23) of Gurudijhatia area of the district married the rape survivor inside the jail premises by exchanging garlands, after orders from a POCSO court and the DG (Prisons),” Choudwar Circle Jail Superintendent Kulamani Behera said.
