Top Indian Judge Suggests Accused Rapist Marry Victim
3 Mar 2021
More than 5,200 people had signed a petition on Wednesday demanding Indian Supreme Court Judge Sharad Arvind Bobde resign after he recently suggested that an accused rapist marry his schoolgirl victim to avoid jail time.
“If you want to marry (her), we can help you. If not, you lose your job and go to jail,” Bobde told an Indian government technician at a court hearing on March 1.
Judge Bobde made the suggestion to a man who petitioned against arrest after being “accused of stalking, tying up, gagging, repeatedly raping a minor school-going girl, and threatening to douse her in petrol and set her alight, to hurl acid at her, and to have her brother killed,” according to the
