										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A 21-year-old IIT-Guwahati student accused of raping a classmate in March was recently granted bail by the Gauhati High Court. While the accused had a &#8220;clear prima facie case,&#8221; the court emphasized that both the victim and the accused were &#8220;brilliant students&#8221; and the &#8220;state&#8217;s future assets.&#8221;</p>
<p>In March, the 21-year-old BTech student was arrested on campus for “sexually assaulting” a peer, a student in the same department at IIT-Guwahati.</p>
<p>The judge said that he had given “given anxious considerations” to the submissions made by both sides, with reference to the relevant documents such as “F.I.R., medical report and statements under Sections 161 and 164 Cr.P.C., the contents of the charge-sheet, the Fact Finding Committee Report etc.”</p>
