Apex Court stays Bombay HC Acquittal in sexual assault case in the absence of skin-to-skin contact
The Supreme Court has stayed the Bombay High Court’s Nagpur Bench order which said that a person groping a girl child’s breast without skin-to-skin contact cannot be held guilty of sexual assault under Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POSCO) Act. The Bombay High Court’s verdict by Justice Pushpa Ganediwala has been challenged by Youth Bar Association of India.
