In Balasore, a 26-year-old man named Barial Hansda has been sentenced to 10 years of Rigorous Imprisonment and fined Rs 1,500 by Special Judge POCSO Ranjan Kumar Sutar. This sentence comes after he was found guilty of kidnapping and raping a 15-year-old girl in August 2016. The judge also stated that if Hansda fails to pay the penalty, he will serve an additional six-month jail term.
According to reports, Hansda, who lives on Laxmannath road under Jaleswar police station, committed this heinous act against the young victim, who happened to be someone he knew. The victim's father filed a First Information Report (FIR) against Hansda, accusing him of kidnapping and rape. After initially fleeing, Hansda was eventually apprehended by the police.
After careful examination of 16 witnesses and 19 exhibits, the court found Hansda guilty under Section 6 of the POCSO (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences) Act. This verdict serves as a strong message that such crimes will not be tolerated and the perpetrators will be brought to justice.
