Maharshi Parida v. State of Odisha
Case brief
What is this about?
Orissa High Court WPCRL 133 of 2025, order dated 15.10.2025; minor victim girl rescued and housed at Vishwa Jeevan Seva Sangha (VJSS) Open Shelter, Bhubaneswar on CWC direction; refusal of medical examination; statement before Jurisdictional Magistrate; FIR against principal accused and aunt; arrest and remand to JMFC; prayer for production of minor victim before High Court refused; liberty to approach CWC Bhubaneswar; petition dismissed.
What did the court decide?
Since the girl has already been rescued and the case has been registered against the primary accused, there is no justification in directing the production of the minor victim girl before the Court. ¶17
