Watching sexual content

This information has taken from lawisgreek on 26.11.2010 legal site

Watching p*rn or adult recreational material within the confines of your private residence is not a crime under the eyes of the law. The Bombay HC dismissed a criminal case against 28 men and 11 women who were booked section 292 (public exhibition of obscene material) of Indian Penal Code.

Justice VK Tahilramani observed that no “public exhibition” was observed in the ‘rave party’ that was being held at a Cottage in Prichly Hill, Lonavala on August 26, 2008. Justice Tahilramani contended that though some men were found watching p*rn film and intoxicated, the venue could not be termed a “public place”.

I do agree the opinion submitted by Advocate M.Bhadra. as you are adult and your room is not a public place you can not be chaeged u/s 292  or 294 i.p.c.

Sir,

Thank u all for your replies , does this verict applicable to entrie India or only applicable to Maharashtra State,

Because right now i live in a southern state.

mr. v kumar i agree with advice of my learnt friend and clarify your further inquiry that it is position of law of land which is prevalent in across the india unless any other  conteroversy will raise.if it isquestion of binding force of verdict is concerned that would be applicable only jurisdiction of maharastra but it would guide other court and lawful authorities.

thx

How old is your next door auntie? I hope she is not your landlady.   Probably her husband may have inadvertently seen her watching the movie. I suggest that you quietly invite the auntie to watch the movie with you.
