The Supreme Court didn’t hold back as it sharply criticized the Kerala High Court for quashing a POCSO case against a school teacher. Expressing serious concern, the apex court said the matter wasn’t something that could just be brushed aside so lightly.
The SC pointed out that cases under the POCSO Act involve the protection of minors and must be handled with the utmost care and sensitivity. This strong reaction has sparked a bigger conversation about how sensitive cases are treated at various levels of the judiciary.
