Accuser in Jay-Z’s Case Can Remains Anonymous for Now — Jay-Z Plans to Dismiss the Rape Case Based on Calendar Dates A federal judge’s recent ruling has allowed the woman accusing Jay-Z and Sean "Diddy" Combs of rape to proceed with her lawsuit anonymously, at least for now. The decision, delivered by U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres, reflects a delicate balance between the plaintiff’s privacy and the defendant’s right to prepare a defense.

Unlike their male counterparts, they have not enjoyed equal access to land inherited from their ancestors since ancient times, largely due to the traditional concept of Stridhan within Indian culture. This custom has influenced the extent of women's rights in land inheritance. Legislation such as the Hindu Succession Amendment Act (2005) introduced a new principle of equality, ensuring that women receive the same inheritance rights as men, particularly regarding land.
