Public sentiment is predominantly negative towards the government's handling of the MLA's alleged actions and reflects deep dissatisfaction with the justice system's perceived ineffectiveness in protecting victims and holding accountable powerful individuals. There are widespread calls for political reform, accountability, and justice for sexual violence victims, strongly voicing concerns about hypocrisy related to women’s rights and the prioritization of media coverage.

This is India's justice system. If it didn't find evidence in this open-and-shut case, imagine its competence in resolving a more typical rape case, many of which only have circumstantial evidence. 

Remember, in the case, the victim was 16 years when she got gang-raped in Sengar's residence, her father 'mysteriously' died in judicial custody (not even police custody), her two aunts were killed in a 'truck collision' and her lawyers attacked.

Everyone in Belthangady taluk know that the real culprit is Harshendra Kumar Hegde's son. There are many eye witness confirming that, a gang took her forcefully when she was walking by the road . And this was seen by a teacher(who is fortunately alive )who was travelling in a bus . Unfortunately some of the many such witnesses are all dead or being blackmailed by them. This is one among such various crimes done by them.

And also encroachment of  others private lands were also common ,some years back. These Hegde family  forces  common people to sell their land for cheap prices. If anyone retaliate against it then they will murder them. After the case of Soujanya , these things has become a little less. What I have mentioned here is one among many atrocity commited by them. If you want to know more , then ask any citizen of Dharmasthala about it.

Just because a court acquired the accused, doesn’t mean he didn’t necessarily do it. 

It’s just that they probably could not prove beyond doubt that the accused is guilty.

Edit: acquitted

my conspiracy theory is that maybe the actual murderer is politically backed up and these CBI are hiding evidence

India is a lost cause. I pity the poor who cannot or do not know how to move out of the country. People in power are just there to make more money. IMHO its best to get out of the country and move elsewhere rather than fight these thugs who are sitting in power. Veerendra Hegde has ties with the two most powerful parties - Congress and BJP. He is the BJP Rajya Sabha Candidate and the stalwarts of Congress Rahul Gandhi and other leaders have been to his place. Trust me until the thought of people change, nothing is going to change. There will be lot more of these that will happen and nothing will be done about it. As an individual nothing can be done individually but these people in power have a huge system working for them. We all have to work everyday for our lives and hence the fire is only for a few days and then these guys walk scot free and this has been happening before and will happen in the future too.

I think you’re misinformed about few points.

Post this in r/LegalAdviceIndia to understand the legality and get a clearer picture of this.

Frequent-Extreme-881

Idk how this organisation plans to vet that the cases are actually fake…could very well be real. God forbid actual victims don’t get justice

Fake cases do exist but it all depends on how your SIL is and if hes doing it to earn money out of rich rapists who wanna get out or he wants to change the fact that men can get entangled and sentenced in such cases so easily even when they’re innocent.

sgtblackdawn

I will say, that everyone deserves good legal representation. If the indian judiciary is doing wrong things, then it’s on them. As long as he’s only paying legally, not bribing lawyers or judges I think he’s well within his right to do so. There’s a counter argument for the same, what if there’s actual innocent people who are suffering ? I believe what he’s doing is important and legal. It’s the law that decides the rest. As long as he doesn’t use money to influence law it’s quite alright.

WonderfulIncrease192

I am sure this is rage bait - will still comment for readers, who may not realize. The discussion is critical.

The core problem the person is trying to address is real “gender skew in legal defense/auto presumption of guilt” which has destroyed lives of entire families. If anyone is actually doing it, they should be supported! 
However there should be strong protections against miscarriage of justice (wrong defense) too. I am not legal expert on how, but I am sure there should be focus on investigations from the defense team too and clear guidelines on “who/what” won’t be defended!

ramnit05

&gt; on this unfair, prejudiced work.

Lots of women in India face domestic abuse and as such the law does favor women because they need it. At least a vast majority of them need it. 

But what this does is that a lot of vindictive women use the law to their advantage by filing false cases of domestic violence. Google up "false promise to marry"- there are a lot of cases where a couple breaks up, and the girl files a case against her ex. And these guys from everyday backgrounds go through hell trying to prove that it was a regular relationship gone sour. 

In India, any woman can file a case against her husband's family that they torture her for dowry, and the family is behind bars before the case even takes its first step. It's good because there are a lot of legit cases where this helps protect the woman. But again, there are a lot of vindictive women who use this to their advantage.

Google 'Jasleen Kaur' and how she screwed up the life of a guy for nothing. 

My point is not that women are bad. But the fact that there are legit cases where men are falsely accused and because the law is designed to be favorable to women, they are often powerless if they don't have help. 

Talk to your son in law to understand why he is doing what he is doing.

Froogler

In India there are few prejudices

if you want to get alimony or financially compensated, women usually file domestic violence/dowry case and then settle it financially outside court. 

There are quite a number of men who goes through fake rape cases and they need legal representation. 

Your son-in-law firmly believes it and is working to support men who are affected by this.

I’m a victim of this. Ex wife threatened with a dowry case. My parents and me evaluated if we should go legally as we never took any dowry, nor caused any physical or mental harm to her, but after speaking to a few lawyers and folks who fought the battle in the past we were informed that women have absolute power during the proceedings. Hence end of the day we have to settle out of court. I paid 20 lakhs and took a clean exit. Divorced and happy. So what your SIL is doing is very helpful for folks like me. Thumbs up to him. DM me his handle / website and I would like to see how I can help.

Its not unfair nor prejudiced work.

That man has worked his way up and made money on his own. Which means that he can spent it on whatever the hell he wants.

Also Indian legal system is sh!t, it will always side with women. Even if women are at fault. 

You could change your entire mindset about this topic just by googleing about Indian legal system protecting women.

I was once in this cross hair because I stood against a women abusing my mother (verbal abuse). This stupid women filed molestation charges against me, fortunately CCTV showed that she tried to attack me and I didn't do anything.  Fortunately, because of my "status" the police stayed with my side as I look like a typical gentle man with straight hair cut n crap and my mom is a friend of Superintendent Of Police.

 If it was some other guy these same police wouldave stood with the women.

An example :

There are no laws that protect men from intimate partner violence, under the Indian Penal Code of 1860, Section 498A explains that a man can only be held liable for practicing violence against his wife, there is no provision in the whole Act which makes the women responsible

3inchesOfMayhem

This is very interesting. I want to know more about your emotions OP
Why does this bother you?

It bothers me too, but I have my own reason for it. What is yours? How do you see the situation as? Forget the legality or the ground situation what did you feel about the situation or think about the situation before you posted?

Anyways I want to talk about something-

I've seen feminist viewpoints on men. Some people say that usually men are oppressors. As in that is where the oppression usually comes from.

Consider this scenario-

In a hypothetical situation where a stricter law was to be passed which would make it harder for a fake rape accusation against a person, feminists argued against it.

This was their reason- The stricter law would let a lot of actual rapists get away.

And since actual rapes outweigh false rape accusations, a stricter law would be an overall negative.

It's an interesting argument which weighs suffering of one group of people with another.

I'm not quite sure what to make of it. But I can a reasoning behind it.

At the same time, a commentor posted a Ben Franklin quote below "It's okay to let 9 innocent and 1 guilty person roam free than have all 10 imprisoned" and it touches upon an aspect of justice which is much more humanitarian.

It seems to imply (actually I'm interpreting it that way) that imprisoning an innocent person is worse than not imprisoning a criminal is.

A very difficult moral quandry.

Now I come to the situation at hand.

Do you know about Men's rights activists?

They "supposedly" champion men's causes.

However they aren't without controversy. Many Men's Rights people become anti-feminist who imply that the system is bent against men.

Or at least there have been many feminist groups who claim that men's rights groups are filled with misogynists.

What's the truth? Maybe a mix of both.

It's true that men get screwed some times. That's going to happen it's a very big world. There's always going to be times when men get the short end of the stick.

It's also true that misogynists who think women are bad, tend to also think they're good and their gender is oppressed by women. So they stick to MRA groups. Follow me so far?

That is to say, both views have merit.
There are heinous stories about men being falsely blamed which float around on the internet and I'm sure some of them are true.

And that some misogynistic people inhabit men's rights groups who aren't really concerned about women getting justice.

There's a lot accusations between two groups of people hardcore feminists and hardcore MRA people.
This is mostly USA based so it's not an entirely issue.

Both groups say the court is biased against us.

Feminists say women are screwed in court (over allimony and rape convictions, and not getting justice from abusers - which is true)

MRA say court favours women because there's a bias against women. They complain that whenever women contest alimony they get it. And society gives women more sympathy and belief when they accuse a person. - and that can be true as well.

Some time ago, I used to believe that men in US really did get screwed over in court in terms of alimony and false rape accusations.

Until I was shown some statistics about how much the conviction rates for rapists and men escaping alimony is.

I don't remember exactly the numbers, but I remember concluding that women get screwed over a lot.

Even if MRA's accusation of their being a bias for women is true, the sheer number of crimes against women still means that women have it worse.

All in all the situation is complex.

Now, you come to India.

The capital of India - Delhi is called the rape capital. Women are raped a lot here, that's the popular consensus.

Harassment is generally very very bad here that's what people say.

Do fake accusations do they exist in India? Absolutely. People are heartless manipulators here. Not all, but enough. This is the curse of the collectivist society 

But if some was to ask me, do rape cases outweigh the rape accusations, I would want to say yes. I can't until I look at the data, but my knee jerk intuition would tell me yes.

In all probability women have it worse in India than men.

The thing that bothers me about this, is that the SIL is choosing to help men, when women need just as much if not more help.

Rape cases must be dime a dozen here. Your decision to help fake rape accusations sounds like it comes from a place of being resentful of the unfairness that men receive.

Which is fair, but what about the women? Right?

Do you see my point?

Heart_Is_Valuable

I don’t understand what you are worried about? Is your SIL is a bad person who wants to use law to help guilty people escape from punishment or helping innocent people fight their battles? How can one say fake or legit about a particular case? Seeing all the proofs and arguments court will decide who is innocent and who is guilty. And it’s always innocent until proven guilty and not the other way around. Don’t try to judge your SIL and try to understand him.

Jack_ReacherMP

Misleading title?

&gt;helps men escape both legit and fake rape cases.

And then you say he only funds legal expenses.

&gt;many of whom might have actually harmed women.

Obviously if courts make mistakes in conviction, it's impossible to have a nonprofit's vetting process be 100% accurate. Obviously some of the people they end up helping will be actually guilty.

Are there any legal techniques/arguments/mechanisms that only help you if you're actually innocent, but not if you're actually guilty? Possibly, but any sane legal system would already try to selectively allow such arguments.

Basically, assuming that you cannot trivially improve the precision-recall curve of jurisprudence, the only choice you have is the tradeoff between false negative and false positives.

GOD_IN_DISGUISE-69

India is misogynistic and every man calls men victim.

Therefore, there's popular (but false) notion that 99% rape, dowry cases are false. 
There's a high demand for anyone supporting this. There are MRA  celebrities specialized in fighting dowry, rape cases.

There's a high demand, hence your son in law has founded a startup. He may not believe this but still it's highly problematic and you are right to be worried.

Majority of rape cases do not get registered in India due to shame attached to it and due to the insensitive police and system. 

Even then a women is raped every 15 minutes (registerd case). 

Marital rape is not a crime in India.

There's a reason why rape/dowry laws are strict in a misogynistic system.

Even though laws are strict, since system is misogynistic, conviction rate of rape and dowry cases are among the lowest in criminal cases.

/india has a majority of soft sexist men. 
So, you may get false feedback here.

reddittauser

Providing Legal representation and counsel to the accused is a perfectly normal thing to do. The Indian constitution itself considers it to be a fundamental right. If anyone is walking out 'free', it is probably because the court may have considerable reason to believe in his innocence. Notwithstanding anything I see absolutely nothing wrong in providing legal representation to the accused. If you have any complaints it should be against the entire criminal justice system and not against your SIL.

He is just allowing them to maintain a case. Simply finding them won't prove them Innocent. It will just give them a chance to actually fight there case in court, which is unfortunately not possible for many accused falsely of such crimes. Even if you think they did it, they deserve a fair trial and defend themselves. If they did it they will get the appropriate punishment. But atleast they should have a chance to defend.

Acceptable-Ad-9424

People here are delusional to think all the rape victims gets justice .thrs a comment that had high upvotes saying 90 percent are fake .my guy 99 percent of rapes never gets into court because women never register complaints .

Just because some rich educated women taking advantage of the situation doesn't mean everyone is like that .

I know this sub is a cesspool but didn't expect this much .

Thrs this one guy saying my father is a victim of the fake rape case .Do u know why  he believes his father is not guilty cause the other woman is ugly .yes ugly people never get sexual assaulted or raped .that's his take and others are justifying and defending when some one called out op .

Haunting_Kalyan

Fake rape cases exists, but they are a tiny minority of all the rape cases. Many rape cases are just "unproven" because of inability to find evidence. Often the victims are bullied and threatened into silence by the accused and his family and friends and forced to take back the case. Many a times, evidence is destroyed by the police themselves, if the accused has political links. Many others are not even reported. Not to forget, marital rape is sadly yet to be criminalised. Its a sad mess out here in India.

This guy is a delusional, toxic, misogynist. Its time for your daughter to ditch that man. He doesnt deserve to be called your son-in-law. You and your daughter are better off without him. I am glad and respect you for standing up against this.

Amn_BA

Gol_D_rogerr

Indian laws are loaded against men when it comes to dowry and divorce cases. In most  cases the fact that the man is the root cause of the issue is not in doubt. But in quite a few cases women take unfair advantage of the law to charge the man and his family - sometimes for a better settlement and sometimes for extortion.

Hopefully your son in law will invest in cases where the men face injustice and not cases where they are the source of injustice.

black_jar

Just curious. Who is your son in law? I personally follow the startup space closely and can't recall a single person who is young and has sold 2 startups with &gt; 100$ million plus.

Particular-Captain13

Every 3 out of 4 rape cases filed in India is fake. Govt knows it. Courts know it. But they're not taking any steps to prevent it since it'll piss off women rights organisations and they'll lose a large voter base. Go to any Indian court and you'll see helpless Indian men fighting against this corrupt practice alone shelling out tons of his hard earned money to the lawyers while his parents and siblings are rotting in jail because a wife can put anyone from the in-law side behind bars just by filing a fake case. In India, laws are extremely skewed in favour of women. Whatever women say is true and the onus falls on men to prove otherwise. Women can say and do whatever they want and get away.

You should appreciate and support your SIL. Whatever he is doing, he is a hero for many. He is a batman of India.

SearchingForMeaning-

There is a problem in India (pretty much everywhere, but it’s worse in India) where women go and accuse men of sexual assault or rape. The way those cases are handled, those men pretty much loose everything even though they might go scotfree eventually. There was a  report recently in Maharashtra state where a senior police officer told that more than 50% of rape cases there were fake. 

So appreciate your son in law for doing this.

Passionate-Lifer2001

Not sure of your concern but to be honest your son in law is doing gods work. Have seen many innocent families destroyed by evil daughters in laws to an extent that men are rather happier to not get into marriage based relationships. Most of these are exceptions rather than norm but havoc they cause to the grooms and their extended families is mind boggling.

I wish him well for him to succeed to an extent india takes a re-look at some of the draconian laws.

gumnamaadmi

It’s easy to abuse the law on both sides. 
While the legitimate ones should be punished, sometimes the fake ones destroy mens life. No one really bothers to find out the truth and mostly always the case is won by the woman. 

It’s good your SIL is fighting for men. But please, ask him to be vigilant. Men too can and will lie.

What if the guy is innocent and he is falsely accused, his whole life may be ruined. So your son in law is doing good work in this case.

 But yeah there could be real rape cases too, so we cant really say for sure who is right or wrong. Well.. women should change and stop filing false cases, so that real victims can get justice.

Kintaro-san__

We don’t know how they will determine if the cases are fake or genuine but I agree with him that the legal system in India is extremely/dangerously in favor on women and openly some women take advantage of this

spongesquish

There are definitely people who take advantage of the laws in India. What OPs son-in-law is trying to do is to help people get good representation. I am sure they try to vet things as much as they can. And if someone guilty gets acquitted due to their efforts, then is that worse than an innocent man being sentenced?

A_Rocks

What he is doing is not unfair, rather need of the hour. Especially Urban Indian men are at the peril of police, courts and lawyers who are all out to get them. I have seen 3 fake cases, or cases blown out of proportion in my close circle using woman-biased laws. I'm glad that he is doing what he is doing to tip the scales bit back.

ninaada

Why are so much ignorant? There is rampant abuse of women friendly laws. Just put yourself in the shoes of middle class law abiding educated Indian male and you will understand the plight of them in the event of legal trouble.

False dowry cases are quite common in India and are used by some women or their families to extort money or give grief to the husband's side's family. Worst part is that the dowry accused is arrested immediately on a non-bailable warrant. This is a serious and genuine issue and your son-in-law is right in spending his money to help the victims of such false cases.

Regarding rape and sexual assault, I am not sure. I would think rape and SA cases would be genuine more often than not, but it's only a guess.

While law needs things to be proven beyond doubt, that is not the case in our day to day judgement. If your son in law's NGO is doing due dilligence and properly interrogating those who come for monetary help, they can use their best judgement and decline cases in which they think the accused is actually guilty. They should not indiscriminately help every accused.

ooaaa

You need to get your facts before coming here to reddit lmao. Im sure that a dude that smart wouldnt be throwing money at lawyers he would probably making a system where he has people to look into the case to deem that its the truth rather than blindly listening to word of mouth. Tbh the fact you seem kinda repulsed shows me you dont know the reality of the justice system of india women are at risk yes but justice system favours women if your sil is as good as u think he is im sure he wudnt be doing smtg  like favoring rapists and ruining his life he worked so hard for

zorojuro3d2y

I know this is a sensitive issue. 

But it's a request to OP, you can check how many these types of cases are registered against Indian men just to extract money or to exploit them. 

Some show 74% some 54% (depending upon different sections of law) . 
You can do some google search and find out actual stats by yourself. 

Also, I don't care if people downvotes me to oblivion for saying the following, 

In India most of the law favours women and worst case even if there are some law to protect men sadly legal enforcement authorities never entertains any appeal from Men side. 

Your son in law there is doing a good job, god bless him.

le_stoner_de_paradis

I’m a victim of this. One of my very close friend accused me of rape because we just had a normal fight between us and because in the fight she was proved wrong, she just put a false rape case on me the next day and this case just ruined my entire life. It happened 2 years ago and still I’m not able to face anyone because ik what feels about me when they meet me. There needs to be some change in the laws of India.

Status-Key9074

We are a country with legislation believing "100 gunhedar chut jaaye par ek begunah ko kabhi saza nahi honi chaiye".

Unless you're determined to jeopardize your relationship and family and fight for the truth you can't do anything about it, please people learn to deal with your emotions and responsibilities. Don't come over to the internet to randomly rant about the misery. Find a lawyer and deal with this professionally.

P.S. to your edit, talk to your daughter in a non hostile and mature environment regarding the concern, and let her make her own decisions, make her realise the unforeseen circumstances and difficulties or maybe issues that come with it at the EOD it's her choices that matters.

Debuuuuuuuuuuu

Just recently a friend of mine got divorced. He went silent for many months but when he was ready to talk i was shocked at what happened. I thought it was an ordinary divorce but his wife and his mother in law conspired to break him emotionally and financially. They tried to break him away from.his family and make him dependent only on them. When he refused, they threatened and went forward with fake case of DV on him. Upon investigation my friend was proven innocent but by this time he was so broken he agreed to part with his hard earned wealth just to make it go all away. Later we found out that his mother in law actually got her first daughter's child aborted without her husband's knowledge and then broke him away from his family and convinced him to sign over his wealth to his wife. They tore him away from.his father and mother by making his wife tell him that his father gets abusive. Although he drank a lot, he actually never abused anyone. Seems this family has a pattern and strategy for the way they treat men. Get their daughters married to men, break them away from their family and dependent on them. Then get wealth signed in the name of their daughters and leech the husbands dry.

TagMeAJerk

&gt;Edit 2: Wow! I did not realize there are so many fake cases in India. I hope to be able to respond to all comments. I did not expect that that there would be so many fakes cases in India.

These are far outnumbered by real cases that either don't get prosecuted or flubbed by the inept, patriarchal, and corrupt police and judicial system. 

Quite often, the claim of "fake cases" is forwarded, based on the claims made by cops. I know how those work from experience of someone close to me. Not rape, but molestation on a dark street right outside her apartment building. She got treated at the hospital and had to take tetanus shots to deal with the deep fingernail wounds left by the attacker and filed a police  complaint the next morning, with the hospital report attached.  A month later, she got a terse post card from the cops accusing her of having fabricated the case, because the cops couldn't gather any corroborative evidence from the dark, deserted Street at midnight. 

The system conflates lack of leads to the identity of attackers with a made up case despite medical evidence of an attack, out of sheer prejudice. 

Our high court and supreme court judges routinely offer an opportunity for the rapists to marry their victims to escape punishment. Even when the victim doesn't want to marry the criminal. 

This system is most certainly not biased in favour of women, no matter what the letter of the law states. 

Your son in law is privileged patriarchal arsehole. He has plenty of resources to carry out actual research rather than believing propaganda he chooses to belive.

charavaka

The judicial system has always been swayed by the rich to favour their interests. Your Son in law is financing a syndicate where justice is offered to the highest bidder. He has the financial stability and the well-being, as you have mentioned. Thus, he can easily start a new venture.

papagoto

OP, let your daughter evaluate how her marriage is changing and if she likes it. If she needs your support, give it or not. Whichever way your own relationship with her unfolds. You do not have to be the arbitrator of truth or correctness here. 

About the issue:

Affordable legal representation is a good thing. Everyone, even abusive men and unrepentant rapists deserve to get adequate legal help. This is a civil right that preserves the justness of the judicial system. Legal help for men is not a knife aimed at women. But, but, but, but- starting an NGO as backlash to women's movements is bad. 

Stringent laws against dowry, DV and rape were passed in response to horrific cases and in lieu of any real change. Unfortunately, because these laws are so stringent, the judicial system is loathe to convict someone. Lack of conviction does not mean the cases were fake. Judges and cops also push for reconciliation, settlement or even marrying a rapist. Right now, as it stands, men are getting their due process and fair outcomes, but the time to resolution is itself a punishment.

This brings me to the final point: people crying hoarse about the fake cases are not asking for judicial reform or quick case resolution! They are upset that women have the right to file the cases!  As long as women die in bride burning, DV, face financial abuse and maltreatment- they will file cases in the court. It is their right as a citizen to ask for justice. It is up to the court to decide on their claims, and ensure the men get their due process.  

Timely justice is an issue in this country and it has nothing to do with gender. Reforming this will take sustained pressure, and collective effort from all citizens (men, women, nb). MRAs cannot solve this and are selling a false bill of goods. 

TL;DR: MRAs do not work for the benefit of men, they work to undermine women.

Since your son in law cares so much about miscarriage of justice, do talk to him about helping Muslim and dalit victims of bulldozing.  For political reasons it has been fashionable for states ruled by a far right hindutva party,  bjp, to bulldoze houses of people from oppressed communities after accusing them of crimes. Forget victim testimony in court, there's no court proceeding necessary before meting out instant "justice".

Here's example from one state:

Nothing's going to happen, If you have enough power and connections ,you can just get away with the worst crimes.  
I had this friend who was the son of an DM, He was under 18 and driving his car recklessly ,guess what happened? He hit an old woman around 50 and she was in drenched in blood. He ran away and nothing happened to him, Not a single thing. He was telling me this the next day and his words in the end were-"Bhai, kya movie wala thrill tha"

&gt;The police said the Royal Enfield Bullet that was being driven in a ‘zig zag’ way near Nafees Batla Road on has been seized.

&gt;“A challan of Rs 20,000 has been issued against the owner of the bike. The bullet also had a modified silencer and was making a lot of noise,” a senior police officer said.

&gt;The police said that when the patrol team sought driving licence and RC, the driver of the two-wheeler allegedly claimed that he doesn’t need a licence to drive as he is the son of MLA Amanatullah Khan.

&gt;The motorcyclists also accused the police of stopping them because of an AAP sticker on the vehicle, the police said.

&gt;Officials at the Jamia Nagar police station alleged the MLA’s son rang his father who also talked in an ill- mannered way to the Station House Officer (SHO). The MLA reportedly told the SHO that the police should jail him as well. The boys then left the bike at the spot, which was then seized by the police under the Motor Vehicles Act.
