\"SC<\/div>\n
NEW DELHI: SC on Tuesday set aside the Calcutta High Court<\/a> order asking adolescent girls to “control their sexual urges”. Setting aside the October 18, 2023, judgment, a bench of justices Abhay Oka<\/a> and Ujjal Bhuyan<\/a> said it had restored the conviction of the accused under the Pocso Act<\/a> and Indian Penal Code.<\/p>\n

The apex court had initiated a suo motu petition “due to sweeping observations\/findings recorded by the division bench of Calcutta High Court” in the ruling.<\/p>\n

The top court had also opined that the comments made by the high court were sweeping, objectionable, irrelevant, preachy and unwarranted. Setting aside his conviction by a trial court, HC division bench had acquitted the youth, who was convicted for raping a minor girl, with whom he had a “romantic affair”. The top court on Tuesday restored the conviction and said a committee of experts will take a call on his sentence.
