There is no limitation period for the court to take cognizance of a rape allegation. Although the delay in lodging the case will not vitiate the proceedings, nonetheless if the delay is not satisfactorily explained the allegations of the prosecutrix could become doubtful unless corroborated by some other substantive evidence.
