💨 Abstract

In Pune, a court rejected a plea seeking a restraining order against statements potentially damaging the character of a woman who was raped on a state transport bus in February. The court stated it was not the appropriate authority to issue such orders, as per Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS). The lawyer has now submitted an application to the district collector for a restraining order.
