Woman uses false rape case to force man to return money
Since the borrower is a govt servant, his retirement benefits would have stopped if he was not cleared of accusation of sexual harassment of women at workplace under the Vishaka guidelines.
Despite repeated requests, the borrower had failed to return the money, leading to escalating tensions.
Driven by desperation to recover unpaid dues, the lender, a widow had filed a written complaint against the man (borrower), alleging molestation and rape.
However, the charges, now revealed as fabricated, were a calculated move to pressure the man into settling the debt.
The copy of the affidavit with TOI, states that the allegations were baseless and that the complainant no longer seeks any legal action on the previously submitted complaint.
"This case underscores the grave consequences of misusing sexual assault laws, especially considering the Vishaka guidelines laid down by the Supreme Court of India in 1997.

These guidelines were designed to protect individuals — especially women — from sexual harassment in the workplace, ensuring dignity, safety and justice. However, false accusations not only harm the accused but also dilute the credibility of genuine victims and undermine the legal safeguards meant to protect them," said a senior govt official, who earlier had served in one of the Vishaka committees to probe another sexual harassment case.
With the financial matter resolved and the money returned, both parties signed the affidavit voluntarily, in full consciousness, and without any influence of intoxicants, read the affidavit.
The document was carried out in the presence of witnesses, confirming that no further dispute or financial obligation remains.
