A.Dear Client,
Yes, a woman can file a case of sexual harassment or rape without having direct evidence. The absence of immediate evidence doesn't prevent someone from reporting such incidents to the police. In many cases, survivors of sexual assault may not have physical evidence due to delayed reporting, but their accounts are still taken seriously.
When a complaint is filed, the police are generally obligated to register a First Information Report (FIR) based on the survivor's statement. However, it's important to note that the legal process involves thorough investigation, and the absence of immediate evidence may affect the strength of the case during trial.
It's important for survivors to report incidents of sexual harassment or assault as soon as possible, as delayed reporting can present challenges in gathering evidence. However, every case is unique, and the legal system is designed to handle situations where evidence may not be immediately available. It's advisable to consult with legal authorities for specific advice.
