Book naval officers for gang rape: Kerala high court

Book naval officers for gang rape: Kerala high court

KOCHI: The Kerala high court on Monday pulled up the state police for not charging a case of gang rape against officers at the Southern Naval Command, Kochi, on a complaint filed by a naval officer's wife and asked the director general of state police to ensure a fair investigation. Justice B Kemal Pasha also dismissed the anticipatory bail plea of lieutenant Ravi Kiran Kabdaula, husband of the aggrieved woman.


The HC questioned the police decision to register a case on charges of assault to woman with an intent to outrage her modesty (Section 354 of IPC) and cruelty by husband (498A of IPC).

Kabdaula's wife, in her complaint, had said she was taken to a room forcibly and molested by friends and superior officers in her husband's presence.
