A special court here has sentenced a man to 20 years of rigorous imprisonment for kidnapping and raping a 15-year-old girl.
Special Judge, POCSO Court, Tara Agrawal, also imposed a fine of Rs 50,000 on Shivam Yadav (22) after finding him guilty in the October 2020 case, Special Public Prosecutor Rakesh Mehrishi said.
Yadav had lured the girl by offering her a chocolate and after she ate it, she became unconscious. He took her to Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh where he forcibly made physical relations for eight months, Mehrishi said.
He said a police complaint was lodged by her parents who suspected Yadav, who lived in their neighbourhood, to be the perpetrator.
