Delhi HC grants bail in POCSO case citing Romeo-Juliet clause

Delhi High Court granted bail to a POCSO accused, noting the accused and 16-year-old victim were in a consensual adolescent relationship and living together. The court cited the Supreme Court's Romeo-Juliet clause, which discourages strict POCSO application in adolescent romances. Victim's parents accepted the relationship; accused had satisfactory conduct during 4-month custody.
