Hi Friends! I knw this is not a social reform site but this fact stuck me...Geet was raped. according to the definition (as per my understanding)
Many of IF members are from US,UK, Pakistan and Afghanistan, dubai etc. I do't know what their laws says but here is what IPC states...
Excerpts of http://www.lawyersclubindia.com/articles/What-is-RAPE-an-offence-under-Indian-Penal-Code-1166.asp
According to the Indian Penal Code, 1860, a man is said to have committed 'rape' when he has had sexual intercourse with a woman under these conditions :
a. Against her will
b. With her consent when her consent has been obtained by putting her or any person in whom she is interested in, in fear of death or hurt.
c. With her consent, when the man knows that he is not her husband and that her consent is given because she believes that he is another man to whom she is or believes herself to be lawfully married.
I think most of us are hooked by this very concept of Geet....As for Geet she has all the right to put Dev behind bars and though he may be the biological father but legally he can have no custody over the child. Many members of this form are teenagers or in their early 20's. Let us be vocal and condemn such acts in our society which is still prevailing.
Amid all the Maaneet chemistry, lets thanks CV, the production house and the entire team for putting up such a brave show......Let's verbalize our anger and condemn those who do such heinous crimes. and let's encourage those who are raising their voice against such crimes.
If anybody has any legal advice please give an insight.
I just realized that some members are geeting an impression that this post is to berate Geet...NO, Definately not. This is just to condemn people who do such crimes against GEETs in our society.
