Rape Bail Lawyer in Delhi

Rape is one of the most heinous crimes committed against women. It fundamentally refers to commission of a sexual intercourse under forceful circumstances without the will/consent of the woman/victim. Such an act amounts to a grave offence under the Indian Penal Code, 1860 which is wide and comprehensive enough to cover all forms of sexual intercourse and acts of sexual penetration carried out against the victim without her consent and is punishable with imprisonment for a term of not less than a period of seven years which may extend upto ten years otherwise.

Thus, rape is a substantially hefty charge and a mere accusation of rape can bear long-lasting consequences to one’s reputation, life, family and career. Rape is thus, a crime that is rapidly escalating owing to the fast moving digitalization, lack of sex education and deteriorating sick mindset of the people. However, on an average every six out of 25 cases reported every day are false and concocted cases wherein charges are levied for seeking any undue benefit of or from the person so accused.

However, it majorly depends upon the facts and circumstances of the case as to by what extent can the charges be defended but a good rape defence lawyer can surely help the accused in attaining a rightful relief.
