The FIR states that the complainant was 17 years old at the time of the alleged incidents. The RCB pacer allegedly invited her to a hotel in Sitapura under the guise of giving her advice about her cricket career after she claimed to have met Dayal during an IPL match in Japur. According to the complaint, the initial instance of sexual assault occurred there.
The victim also asserts that it started when she was still a minor and lasted for two years. Considering her age when the incident first took place, the police registered the case under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, a stringent law against sexual crimes involving minors.
In addition to directing the state’s attorney to provide a counter-affidavit, the court sent the complainant a notice requesting a response. In accordance with Section 69 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), which deals with sexual activity conducted through dishonest means, the FIR was filed on July 6 at the Indirapuram police station in Ghaziabad. According to the lawsuit, Dayal gave the woman false promises of marriage in order to deceive her.
According to the petitioner’s attorney, a person can only be charged with a crime under Section 69 of the BNS if it can be proven that he makes a vow to marry a lady with no intention of keeping it.
