The Court noted that the man first promised that he would marry the woman and, acting on this promise, the woman and her husband divorced by mutual consent.
The Delhi High Court recently granted anticipatory bail to a 20-year-old student accused of raping his 35-year-old professor on false pretext of marriage.
High Court said that protection Section 376 (rape) is not available to a woman who was not legally entitled to marry the person with whom she was in sexual relationship with.
