SC setting aside bail to police officer accused of raping a minor gang rape survivor
  • This decision may lead to erosion of public trust in the criminal justice system as it could be seen as protecting perpetrators in positions of power.
  • It could discourage survivors from coming forward to report cases of sexual violence, especially if the accused is a figure of authority.
  • Setting aside the bail might send a message that individuals in power are above the law and can escape accountability for their actions.
  • It could also have a negative impact on the morale of law enforcement agencies, as it may raise questions about the integrity and credibility of police officers.
  • This decision could also fuel public outcry and demand for reforms in the legal system to ensure justice for survivors of sexual violence.
