LiveLaw: Contradictions in Victim's Testimony, Narayan Sai Tells Gujarat High Court

LiveLaw's 18 March 2026 report on Narayan Sai's own arguments to the Gujarat High Court in his appeal against his 2019 rape conviction and life sentence. His counsel argued the complainant's account held contradictions and improvements across its versions, that she offered no explanation for not reporting the assaults sooner despite having the opportunity, that no independent witness had been examined by the prosecution, and that the trial court had rejected the defence's case without independently testing whether guilt was proved beyond reasonable doubt. The bench did not rule on the merits at this hearing and scheduled continued argument for 23 March 2026.
