Bar & Bench

The Allahabad High Court recently ordered that its registry should take the court's permission before it allows filing of photographs that show private moments of parties [Pradumn Gond vs State of UP].

Justice Ajay Bhanot said filing of such photographs which depict private moments between parties invades the privacy and can also prove to be traumatic for someone.“A direction is issued to the registry that no private photographs or any indecent photographs shall be accepted by the registry without leave of the Court,” the single-judge ordered.

 Justice Ajay Bhanot

The direction was passed by the Court after it noticed that certain private photographs had been attached with a rejoinder affidavit filed in connection with a bail plea in a rape case.

The accused had approached the Court for bail, saying he had been in custody since November 23, 2023.It was also submitted that the accused and the victim had been in a consensual relationship and the rape case was filed after the relationship turned sour.“The applicant never captured any indecent photographs or videos of the victim nor had circulated the same. No indecent photographs or videos of the victim have been recovered from the applicant,” the counsel representing the accused told the Court.

Considering the submissions, the Court allowed the bail plea.Advocates PK Singh, Sunil Kumar Pandey represented the accused.Advocate Chandan Agarwal represented the State of Uttar Pradesh.[Read Order]
