POCSO FIR can't be quashed only because victim and accused have married and have a child: Bombay HC

The Bombay High Court ruled that even if a minor and her accused partner later marry and have a child, the offenses under the POCSO Act cannot be quashed merely on that basis. The bench held that legal safeguards for minors are not overridden by private arrangements, reinforcing the State’s duty to prosecute sexual offenses against children.
