Section 225: Abduction of girl under eighteen with intent to have carnal

knowledge
Any person who, with intent that an unmarried girl under the age of eighteen years
may be unlawfully carnally known by any man, whether a particular man or not, takes
her or causes her to be taken out of the custody or protection of her father or mother,
or other person having the lawful care or charge of her, and against the will of such
father or mother or other person, is guilty of a misdemeanour and is liable to
imprisonment for two years.
It is a defence to a charge of any of the offences defined in this section of this Code to
prove that the accused person believed, on reasonable grounds, that the girl was of or
above the age of eighteen years.
