delay of two months in lodging of FIR. Prosecutrix has stated that
her husband asked to lodge the FIR. It is also contended that P.W.

stated that he is not aware of any incident. It is further contended
that prosecutrix-P.W. 2 has denied giving statement under Section
161 Cr.P.C. and Section 164 Cr.P.C. before the Magistrate. She has
also denied that she was shown some obscene photographs or
video clippings. It is also contended that prosecutrix has given
evidence that she informed her husband about the incident on the
same day. However, no FIR was lodged on that day and the FIR
was lodged after an inordinate delay of two months. It is further
contended that appellants have been acquitted for offence of
Sections 384 and 323 IPC. It is also contended that appellants
have remained in custody for a period of about three years.
