印度的Chhattisgarh高等法院规定, 丈夫不能因为强奸妻子而被起诉, India's Chhattisgarh High Court rules husbands can't be prosecuted for raping their wives, sparking legal争议.

印度的Chhattisgarh高等法院裁定,根据《印度刑法》,丈夫不得因其与成年妻子发生强奸或非自然性行为而受到起诉,即使未经其同意。 The Chhattisgarh High Court in India ruled that a husband cannot be prosecuted for rape or unnatural sex with his adult wife, even without her consent, under the Indian Penal Code. 该决定指出,如果妻子年满15岁,其同意就无关紧要,对印度的婚内强奸法具有重大影响。 This decision, which states that a wife's consent is irrelevant if she is over 15, has significant implications for marital rape laws in India. 法院的裁决还导致一名男子被宣告无罪,该男子最初因妻子在非自然性行为事件后死亡而被定罪。 The court's ruling also led to the acquittal of a man initially convicted for his wife's death after an incident of unnatural sex.
