PUL-SATOR 01August 2013 Volume-1 Issue-I ABSTRACT Criminal Law Amendment Act 2013 (on Rape etc) This Act received the assent of President on 02.04.2013. It amends IPC, Cr.P.C, Indian Evidence Act and Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act 2012. Some of its salient features are:‐ Vide Clause Seventhly in Section 100 of IPC, it makes throwing of acid (within certain parameters) as a criminal offence. This Section should be read with Sections 326A & 326B of IPC which deal with acid, burns etc. Vide Section 166A it makes non‐registration of FIR (in certain cases) by the police officer a criminal offence. Vide Section 166B, it treats contravention of Section 357C of Cr.P.C by a Clinic or Hospital etc a criminal offence. [Comments: By implication, S.354 excludes eunuchs, lesbians etc; it also does not specify that ‘man’ should be a person capable of performing sex, nor does it define ‘man’ as a person who has attained the legal ‘age of majority’. Moreso, the use of words "with the knowledge that he is likely to cause such injury or hurt..." in Section 326A, implies that a juvenile ‐‐ as long as he has that knowledge (may be due to Cinema, TV, School‐education etc) ought to be punished in the same manner and to the same extent as an accused who has attained the physical age of maturity.] Full Paper: http://www.pul‐sator.com/Archives/CD1/contents/6.pdf 6
