Vishal Dadlani Slams Chhattisgarh HC's Rape Verdict: 'Running Rapist Bachaao Abhiyaan'
- •Singer-composer Vishal Dadlani strongly reacted to a Chhattisgarh High Court judgment modifying a rape conviction to attempt to rape.
- •The High Court ruled that ejaculation without penetration does not meet the legal definition of rape under Section 375 IPC before the 2013 amendment.
- •Justice Narendra Kumar Vyas stated that penetration is the "sine qua non" for rape, and ejaculation without it constitutes attempted rape.
- •Dadlani expressed outrage on Instagram, calling for judges' names and pictures to be posted online for such judgments and alleging a "#RapistBachaaoAbhiyaan."
- •The 2004 case involved an accused dragging, confining, and assaulting the victim; the High Court modified the conviction due to inconsistencies and lack of conclusive penetration evidence.
