Consensual sex in live-in relation not rape if man fails to marry: SC
The Supreme Court on Wednesday maintained that consensual sex between live-in partners doesn't amount to rape if they don't get married due to reasons beyond control. The court said this while quashing an FIR by a Maharashtra-based nurse, who was in a live-in relationship. It added if the man had "mala fide intention", it was a clear case of rape.
