Relationship ending without marriage doesn't amount to rape: Uttarakhand HC
NEW DELHI: The Uttarakhand high court has quashed a rape case registered against a man who was accused of establishing a physical relationship with a woman on the false promise of marriage. The court held that the two had met on the dating app Tinder and entered into a consensual relationship, which cannot later be treated as rape merely because it broke down without ending in marriage.
