S. 377 IPC | Uttarakhand High Court Stays Revision Court Order Exonerating Man From Charge Of Having 'Unnatural Sex' With Wife

In a recent Uttarakhand High Court ruling, the court addressed a case involving a husband accused of unnatural sexual acts with his wife under Section 377 of the IPC. The husband challenged the trial court’s conviction, but the High Court emphasized that the revision court cannot exonerate an accused or alter findings of fact. It held that the trial court’s conviction must be upheld if supported by substantial evidence. The court's decision underscores the importance of maintaining the integrity of legal proceedings and upholding convictions where evidence is adequate.
