The Delhi court has discharged a man accused in a rape case, with WhatsApp chat evidence provided as a critical factor undermining the woman's allegations.

Introduced through a marriage proposal, the case's timelines revealed a five-month delay in registering the FIR, raising questions about the validity of the claims.

The judge noted the complainant's education and maturity level, deeming it unlikely she would fabricate claims instead of taking legal action, particularly given the chats exhibited cordial relations.
