State vs. Accused (unnamed) — Sexual assault and rape case, Ghaziabad

Following an initial complaint on 7 July 2026, an FIR was registered in Ghaziabad on 28 July 2026 regarding allegations of rape and sexual assault against an employer. The Allahabad High Court ordered the Uttar Pradesh DGP on 19 August 2026 to conduct a supervisory inquiry into local police officials for their initial refusal to register the case. The court subsequently ruled on 26 August 2026 that police cannot refuse to register FIRs in sexual assault cases based solely on a lack of digital evidence.
