QUERY

DIVYA and DEEPAK were childhood friends living in small village . Both of them grew together and there was tactic understanding between them to marry each other . Deepak also made a promise of marriage and with her consentt entered into a s*xual intercourse with her . Deepak moved to city and starts evading her and refused to marry her. While facing prosecution for the offence of rape , Deepak pleads that s*xual intercourse was with consent of Divya and therefore he cannot be held for offence. What would be the outcome for this ?

it will be treat as rape. Getting concent by doing false promise is not a free concent. For clarification read section 375 of ipc.
