The Allahabad High Court has rejected the bail application of a 62-year-old man who raped a three-year-old girl.

The Allahabad High Court rejected the transfer applications of gang-rape accused and said justice is not for the accused alone, and it should also be done for the victim.

The Supreme Court dismissed a plea of a prosecutrix against the bail granted to the man accused of raping her repeatedly, saying the FIR indicates the two knew each other and continued to have sexual relations and sexual contact repetitively. 

As per Exception 2 to Section 375[1] (“the Exception”), Indian Penal Code, 1860 (“IPC”), any man who indulges in sexual activity with his own wife (the wife not being under eighteen years of age) will not be constituted as an offence of rape.
