Md. Aftar Hussain @ Aftar Hussain vs The State Of Assam And Anr on 14 November, 2025
In Deepak Kumar Sahu (Supra), the Supreme Court held that corroboration is not a sine-qua-non for
conviction in a rape case. As a general rule, there is no reason to insist on corroboration, except from
medical evidence. However, having regard to the circumstances of a case, medical evidence may not be
available.
