No rule in the Act protects men from such violence. Having the sort of law offers a presumption that, men are usually guilty, at the same time as women, then again, are always innocent. Other than the law, there exist some other motives that could purpose such cases to move unreported, these may additionally include – the societal assumption that men are sturdy and difficult to cry, or in the event that they get prison help, it can motive discomfort for them and their families, and the listing is going on.
