Karan Oberoi Case: Court Refuses to Believe Rape Account!

After Aansh Arora case, Karan Oberoi's case is taking new turns each passing day. Earlier we reported about the court refusing to grant bail to Karan Oberoi who was booked under the charges of rape and blackmailing. Now the latest news that we hear is that the sessions court has refused to believe the story of the woman who accused the actor of initially raping her by spiking her drinks as well as videotaping the incident to extort money from her in the pretext of circulating the video.

The order which was out on Tuesday, states, “The story in respect of sexual intercourse by administration of intoxicating substance is difficult to believe for the reason that the informant is said to have left for her house soon after the incident. The story in respect of extortion under intimidation to make the video go viral is also difficult to believe looking to the fact that the informant continued to give gifts to the applicant from time to time and also looking into the Whatsapp messages showing their continuous cordial relationship.”

Additional sessions Judge S U Baghele, in a seven-page order, also notes, “The perusal of WhatsApp messages on record reveal they went to the extent of chatting in obscene language. It is also seen they had developed intimacy. However, there is no message to the extent that the actor had promised to marry her.” The court also made note of the “costly articles gifted by the informant to the applicant and his relatives and transfer of huge sums of money by the informant to the bank account of the applicant.”

The judge said, “A prudent person can understand one-sided love wherein one may be prepared to give up everything blindly for someone else. However, the acceptance of valuable things and money by another person would cause one to think in a different direction. The applicant as a prudent person cannot be expected to have accepted them unless the relationship between them was a committed relationship, thereby inclined to get united together as life partners.”

The judge further said, “In that view of the matter though, this court, prime facie, finds it difficult to believe the initial story of rape, continued sexual intercourse, either by expressly or by impliedly pretending to an intention of marriage, which amounts to rape, as the intention appears to be otherwise than to get married since inception.”
