    Indecent Assaul t under Indian Penal CodeI r i * high time that a new section be added in the Indian Penal Codeprovidp u n is hm en t for ' indec ent assault ' either comm itted by a man or a womanprovided under Sexual Offences Act, 2003 in England. Such a provision isnecessanbecause under Indian law persons, who are found guiltyof'indecent assault',are norcovered under any one of the existing provisions in the Code and go scot-free.Thelaw should cover both a man and a woman alike as in case of English law, andpunishment should be more stringent than in case of ordinaryassault.The proposedsection should read as stated below:

    The fact that on the day of occurrence the girl voluntarily went to the accused wouldbe no defence to a charge of kidnapping a minor girl with an intention to seduce herto engage ii illicit intercourse, if there is ample material showing allurement.Section 361 uses the expression whoever takes or entices any minor*. The word'takes*no doubt, means physical taking but not necessarily by use of force or fraud.The word 'entice' seems to involve the idea of inducement or allurement by givingrise to hope or desire in the other. This may work immediately or it may create acontinuous and gradual but imperceprible impression culminating after some timein achieving its ultimate purposes of successful inducement.

    The two words read together suggest that if the minor leaves her parental home,completely uninfluenced by any promise, offer or inducement emanating from theguilty party, then the latter cannot be considered to have committed the offence ofkidnapping(Vknutmgmtscase).But, if die guilty party has laid a foundation by inducement, allurement or threat,

    etc,and ifthiscan be considered to have influenced the minor or weighed with herin leaving her guardian's custody or keeping and going to the guilty party, thenprima facie it would be difficult for him to plead innocence on the ground that theminor had voluntarily come to him. If the accused had at an earlier stage solicited orinduced her in any manner to leave her fetther's protection by conveying ori n d j c a t , n a " T ? r m g suBS**ion that he would give her shelter, then the merecircumstances that his act w nn t. , i a > ., 8 , , ." n o t tne immediate cause of her leaving her parental
