Allahabad HC denies plea to drop rape case linked to nikah halala
The Allahabad High Court has declined to dismiss an FIR filed against nine individuals. The group is accused of raping a woman in 2016 while she was a minor as part of a 'nikah halala' ritual. Furthermore, the accused allegedly gang-raped her again in 2025 during a subsequent 'double' halala. The court emphasized that the provisions of the POCSO Act take precedence over personal laws.
