💨 Abstract

The Delhi High Court denied bail to a man accused of sexually assaulting his 13-year-old neighbor in July 2024. The court observed that sexual assault among children by trusted individuals is common. The victim, who addressed the accused as uncle, was traumatized and could not immediately disclose the incident to her parents. The court commended the school teacher for supporting the victim, leading to the registration of the FIR.
