The Madras High Court recently quashed a sexual harassment case against self-proclaimed godman Shiva Sankar Baba, after noting that while the incident allegedly occurred between the years 2010 and 2011, the first information report (FIR) was registered only in 2021 and the prosecution failed to file an application before the magistrate seeking condonation of such delay [Siva Shankar v State & Anr].
