Hyderabad, March 25 -- The Supreme Court (SC) on Tuesday, March 25, refused to hear a petition challenging the Allahabad High Court's recent order which stated: grabbing the breasts of a minor and breaking the string of her pyjama do not constitute rape or attempt to rape.

Following the HC's order, a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) was filed in the Apex Court requesting it to direct the removal of the controversial portion of the March 17 judgment. It also called for the establishment of guidelines to prevent judges from making similar controversial remarks in the future.
