Showing contexts for: secondary school code in Mahendra Singh vs State Of Rajasthan & Anr. on 28 January, 2015Matching Fragments
It is a sorry state of affairs that when the girl in her statement recorded under Section 164 Cr.P.C. has clearly stated that in the Secondary School Certificate her date of birth has been recorded as 07.04.1996, the police did not make any attempt to recover the said certificate or to further enquire to confirm the date of birth of the girl. It seems that for the purpose of concluding that on the date of incident the girl was minor, the police has placed reliance on a birth certificate issued on 16.04.2014 from Birth & Death Registrar. The said certificate is obtained after the recovery of girl.
