Introduction:

The Allahabad High Court, through Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav, recently raised serious concerns over the manner in which male gym trainers are imparting training to female clients without safeguards to ensure their safety, dignity, and privacy.

The case arose out of an appeal filed by a gym trainer who was accused of misbehaving with a woman client. According to the allegations, the trainer:

• Used a caste-based slur against the complainant.

Pushed her and hurled filthy abuses.

• Was booked under provisions of the SC-ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act and the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
• Additionally, in her Section 164 CrPC statement, the complainant revealed further disturbing facts:
• The trainer allegedly made obscene videos of her friend.
• He was also sending such obscene material to her friend.

Court’s Legal Assessment:

The bench noted that such actions could also attract offences under Section 354 IPC (assault or criminal force to woman with intent to outrage her modesty) and Section 504 IPC (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of peace).

The Court was deeply concerned with the lack of safeguards in gyms where male trainers are often directly handling female clients, remarking that it is an issue of women’s safety and dignity.

Directions Issued:

The Investigating Officer (IO) was directed to file a personal affidavit clarifying:

• Whether the gym operated by the appellant was duly registered under the law.
• Whether the appellant has been arrested in connection with the case.
• Whether the gym had female trainers employed for women clients.

Next Hearing:

• The matter has been listed for further hearing on September 8.
