No such officer is allowed to enjoy impunity on the pretext of discharging official functioning nor can be set free to form an audacious remark without any basis," the bench observed. Can't Withhold Promotion On Ground Of Adopting Sealed Cover Procedure During Pendency Of Criminal Case: Allahabad High Court Case title - Ranbir Singh vs. State Of U.P. And 2 Others [WRIT - A No. - 1789 of 2022] Case Citation: 2023 LiveLaw (AB) 56 The Allahabad High Court observed that the Competent Authority can not withhold the recommendation of a person indefinitely on the ground of adopting the sealed cover procedure during the pendency of the criminal case. The bench of Justice Jaspreet Singh observed thus while granting relief to one Ranbir Singh (presently serving as a Tehsildar with the State Government and seeking promotion to the post of a Deputy Collector) by directing the Competent Authority to consider his claim of opening the sealed cover within a period of eight weeks from the date. A Woman Facilitating Act Of Rape With A Group Of People May Be Prosecuted For 'Gang Rape' U/S 376D IPC: Allahabad High Court Case title - Suneeta Pandey vs. State Of U.P. And Another [APPLICATION U/S 482 No. - 39234 of 2022] Case Citation: 2023 LiveLaw (AB) 57 The Allahabad High Court observed that a woman can not commit the offence of rape but if she facilitates the act of rape with a group of people then she may be prosecuted for 'Gang Rape' under Section 376D Of IPC in view of the amended provisions. Perusing the provisions of Section 375 and 376 IPC (as amended by Act 13 of 2013 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860), the bench of Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav rejected the argument that a woman cannot be prosecuted for the alleged commission of the offence of gang rape.
