11-year-old’s testimony sends rapist’s stepfather to jail | India News – Times of India
The accused was convicted by Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge T. Anitha for repeatedly raping the girl and forcing her to have unnatural sex. The minor was nine when the abuse started in 2022. Her mother, who had caught her husband red-handed and taken her daughter to the police, went back to live with the suspect when he was released on bail. She not only denied knowledge of the crime, but also decided to force her daughter to withdraw the case.
But the minor stuck to her guns and told the court during a hearing that ‘Allah’ would punish her if she lied.
