False Marriage Promise Defense
Summary
In India, Section 498A IPC addresses cruelty by a husband or his relatives, while Section 376(2)(n) IPC pertains to repeated rape by a person in authority or trust. For defense in a false marriage promise case under Section 376(2)(n), landmark judgments like Uday vs. State of Karnataka (2003) can be useful. The absence of evidence such as WhatsApp chats, photos, and eyewitnesses, along with negative medical and FSL reports, may strengthen the defense. The lack of a 164 statement during the investigation and inconsistencies in FIR and court statements are also critical points. Consider consulting a local attorney for tailored advice based on your specific circumstances and jurisdiction.Full Conversation
