#non-examination of victim

The Delhi High Court upheld a conviction under PoCSO despite the non-verbal child victim not being examined, ruling that medical certification of cerebral palsy and consistent testimony from family members and the MLC suffice to establish guilt. This sets a critical precedent for prosecuting sexual crimes against children with disabilities where direct testimony is impossible, reinforcing that evidentiary flexibility must align with justice, not procedural rigidity.

Bombay High Court acquits accused in POCSO case where child victim was not examined and medical evidence contradicted prosecution's version. Key precedent on evidentiary standards.
