MA 2204/2020 in W.P.(Crl.) No. 194/2017

JOSEPH SHINE VS UNION OF INDIA SECRETARY

The Supreme Court unanimously held that its decision in the 2018 Joseph Shine case did not consider whether the invalidation of Section 497 of the IPC applied to the Army Act, Air Force Act or Navy Act that governed the armed forces. Thus, the striking down of adultery under the IPC did not affect proceedings against members of the armed forces under the Army Act, Air Force Act or Navy Act. Justice Joseph authored the judgment of the Court.
