The Calcutta High Court held on Monday, May 6, said that a DNA report is not conclusive evidence to establish rape. The court observed while refusing to discharge a man in a rape case despite a DNA report concluding that he was not the biological father of the child born to the victim. The high court bench of single-judge Justice Ajay Kumar Gupta also noted that the evidence adduced by the victim girl established a prima facie case of rape or penetrative sexual assault of the victim girl by the petitioner. Calcutta High Court Says Courts Should Award Litigation Costs to Wife at Outset in Matrimonial Suit Filed by Husband.
