Madhya Pradesh: Satna Man Gets 10 Years’ Rigourous Imprisonment For Raping Minor
Satna (Madhya Pradesh): A special court dealing with the cases under Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act has sentenced a man to ten years’ rigorous imprisonment for raping a minor. The court also imposed a fine of Rs 5,000 on the accused. SDOP Harikrishna Tripathi pleaded the case on behalf of the government. According to reports, the girl, who went to a shop on May 5, 2019, was raped.
The two accused, including a minor boy, met her near a vegetable shop and told her to make a round of the market with them. Because the girl was acquainted with both the men, she did not refuse it. They took the girl to an isolated place near Khermai temple and violated her and abandoned her near the canal. She somehow returned home and related her tale of woes to her parents who took her to the police station to lodge a complaint. The police arrested both the accused. The minor was tried in a juvenile court.
