德里高等法院维持对性攻击未遂罪的10年徒刑,拒绝将撕裂的处女膜作为唯一证据。 Delhi High Court upholds 10-year sentence for attempted sexual assault, rejecting torn hymen as sole proof.

德里高等法院裁定,被撕破的处女膜不是性攻击的确凿证据,特别是在未遂案件中,维持一名男子因试图对其九岁侄女进行性攻击而判处的10年徒刑。 The Delhi High Court ruled that a torn hymen is not conclusive proof of sexual assault, especially in attempted cases, upholding a man’s 10-year sentence for attempting to sexually assault his nine-year-old niece. 法院强调,诸如受害人的证词、父母陈述和DNA匹配的精液在她衣服上的污点以及法医调查结果等证据,证明她有罪,无可置疑。 The court emphasized that evidence like the victim’s testimony, parental statements, and DNA-matched semen stains on her clothing, along with forensic findings, established guilt beyond reasonable doubt. 它驳回了关于体检前未完好的处女膜或换衣服有损案情的申诉,指出这些因素不构成合理怀疑。 It rejected claims that an intact hymen or changed clothing before medical examination undermined the case, stating such factors do not create reasonable doubt. 该决定强调,定罪必须依靠全部证据,而不是孤立的物理指标。 The decision reinforces that convictions must rely on a full body of evidence, not isolated physical indicators.
