The boy was booked under Section 75 of the Juvenile Justice Actfor allegedly impregnating the girl two months before she turned 18.

I don't know Indian law but this should be one for the books. I don't think that a twelve year old boy should be held legally responsible. If the courts pursue this, I think that it will be a gross miscarriage of justice.
