Kerala HC found evidence to prosecute Catholic Bishop Franco Mulakkal for raping a Catholic Nun in June 2018

It is also held that since there are allegations of repeated acts of rape, proof of more than one instance of rape would result in the commission of 376(2)(n) IPC, which being a distinct offence, each of the single instances of rape can be tried along with the distinct offence of 376(2)(n) IPC, under sec. 220(4) of Cr.P.C.
