New Delhi: A man accused of raping a woman security guard has been acquitted by a Delhi court after the alleged victim retracted her statement and said that physical relations between them were consensual.

Additional Sessions Judge Kaveri Baweja absolved the man, a Delhi resident, of the charges of poisoning and raping the woman, who worked as a security guard at an eye hospital here, after she changed her stand saying that she was in love with him and lodged a false case under police pressure.
