Sex-workers are also entitled to a life of dignity under article 21. They are also equal to citizens of India.

She was kicked with fists and legs. Then she was caught by her hair and her head was banged against the floor. She was seen profusely bleeding, the victim was taken to hospital and was found dead on arrival. This incident was witnessed by four persons. The post-mortem report found 11 <a href=\"https:\/\/lexforti.com\/legal-news\/infliction-of-radiaton-injuries-on-human-body\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">injuries on the body<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contentions_of_the_appellant\"><\/span>Contentions of the appellant:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The appellants contended that the <a href=\"https:\/\/lexforti.com\/legal-news\/testimony-of-related-witnesses-can-be-the-basis-of-conviction-if-found-to-be-reliable\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">testimony of the prosecution witnesses<\/a> 2, 7, and 8 were not proper and cannot be relied upon.

Pw8 saw the victim being mercilessly beating the appellant and the same is the evidence of pw7. There is no reason to believe the testimony of eye-witnesses in the case which corroborates <a href=\"https:\/\/lexforti.com\/legal-news\/when-medical-evidence-also-does-not-support-the-case-the-conviction-and-sentence-can-be-set-aside\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the medical evidence<\/a>.
