A local court in Faridabad acquitted an accused man charged for rape after the complainant woman accepted filing a false FIR under pressure from her family.
Shockingly, the court has ordered the woman to pay only Rs 500 for filing a false rape case.
Supreme Court Acquits Two Men In False Rape Case After They Spent Nearly 10-Years In Jail

In her complaint, the woman alleged that Indrajit had raped her, uploaded her objectionable photographs on social media and even threatened to kill her and her family members. Subsequently, the accused was arrested and sent to jail.
Woman Denies Rape After Four Years
After investigation and 11 witnesses in the case, the woman denied the allegations in the court.
On Monday, the complainant accepted that she had lodged the case under pressure from her family.
Court Orders Fine For Filing False Rape Case
It was concluded that Indrajit had neither raped her nor uploaded any of her pictures on social media.
As the woman accepted filing false rape case, the court ordered that a counter case be filed against her under Section 344 of CrPC for giving false evidence.
Accordingly, court ordered her to pay a fine of Rs 500. If she fails to pay the fine, she will have to undergo simple imprisonment for seven days. However, the woman quickly deposited the fine in the court and got relief.
