 "summary": "The judgment of the Delhi High Court records the following account. CISF Sub-Inspector (Executive) [name withheld] was arrested on 20.07.2015 in FIR No. 412/2015 alleging rape and criminal intimidation at Pooja Lodge, Chhindwara, while on leave from his Chhindwara posting. He was suspended, departmentally charged with pre-planned hotel booking tarnishing the force's image, producing an unauthorised identity card, and the criminal case itself, and removed from service on 26.03.2016. Though he was later acquitted in the criminal trial after the complainant turned hostile, the Delhi High Court held the disciplinary finding was one no reasonable person could fault, refused interference under Articles 226/227, and dismissed his writ petition. Matters not addressed in the cited judgment text are not recorded here.",

 "court_quote": "Even otherwise, the version of the petitioner, of inspite of reaching Chhindwara, where his wife and family was, not proceeding immediately to his home/residence but checking into a hotel, has rightly been construed by the Disciplinary Authorities as pre-planning by the petitioner. In this context, we may notice that the petitioner does not dispute (a) the visit of the insurance agent / complainant, a lady, unaccompanied with her husband or anyone else, in his room in the hotel at Chhindwara; (b) the lodging of the FIR of the offence of rape and other offences; and, (c) arrest of the petitioner. From the said admitted facts and the conduct of the petitioner, notwithstanding the acquittal of the petitioner in the criminal case, order of upholding of the charge by the Disciplinary Authority cannot be said to be such which no reasonable person could have reached.",
