Mumbai: ‘Live-In Relationship Agreement’ Helps Man Obtain Bail

Mumbai ‘Live-In Relationship Agreement’: In A 46-year-old man seeking pre-arrest bail in a rape case filed by his partner in Mumbai presented a “live-in relationship agreement,” which he claims includes a clause stating that neither would file sexual harassment cases against the other. The court granted him bail on August 29.

The 29-year-old woman who filed the case told the Mumbai court that the signature on the “live-in relationship agreement” was not hers. According to the police, the woman works as a caregiver for the elderly, while the accused is a government employee. The police are now investigating the validity of the claimed relationship agreement.

The woman says her partner promised to marry her and raped her multiple times while they were living together. The lawyer for the accused has described the case as fraud.
