The Delhi High Court ruled that Muslim personal law cannot protect a man from POCSO charges for sexual relations with his 16-year-old wife. The court said marriage does not change age, and POCSO sets 18 as the consent threshold. The couple's plea to quash the FIR was rejected. The case will continue against the 28-year-old husband.
