I have a doubt. For rape cases, in Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, in section 64(1), the term "rigorous imprisonment of either description" has been used. How rigorous imprisonments can is of either description? Is it a drafting error? What are its judicial and legal scholar’s interpretations?
Sir, rigorous imprisonment of either description means the court can decide if the imprisonment involves hard labor or not, based on the case's severity. It allows judicial discretion in sentencing, ensuring flexibility without being a drafting error. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
