flag India's Supreme Court overturned a man's conviction under child protection laws, citing his marriage to the victim and their stable family life.

flag India's Supreme Court has quashed a man's conviction under the POCSO Act and IPC, citing his marriage to the victim—now his wife—and their stable family life with a child. flag The court, invoking Article 142 for complete justice, emphasized the relationship was based on love, not coercion, and that continuing prosecution would cause irreparable harm. flag While acknowledging the seriousness of sexual offenses against minors, the court ordered the man to maintain and not desert his wife and child for life, warning of consequences for breach. flag The decision, based on unique circumstances, is not a legal precedent.
