The HC upheld the lower court's verdict and pointed out that the two girls had "absolutely no motive" to implicate their father. Justice Pratibha Rani echoed observations made by the Supreme Court that there can't ever be "more graver and heinous crime" than a father raping his daughters.
The court went by the testimonies of the daughters, whose mother did not live with them. It also waived off the delay in reporting the matter to the police by the elder girl, saying she wanted to avoid a situation where she and her three siblings are rendered homeless.
"Perhaps in a hope to have a roof on their head, 'X' (eldest survivor) continued to bear the repeated sexual assaults of her own father with the hope that at least her three younger sisters are safe. The mere fact that she raised her voice when she saw her father attempting to rape her younger sister and she sent her sister to school shows that even at that stage, she had no intention to lodge an FIR against her own father," the high court noted, empathizing with the plight of the girls.
"It may be mentioned here that the four daughters have been rendered homeless just because X on seeing her father not sparing even his 11-year-old daughter was compelled to take action against him...," the court further observed, while explaining delay in reporting of the crime.
