The Gondia court in Maharashtra on Saturday sentenced a man to 30 years in jail for raping a 6-year-old girl in 2021.
Previously, Principal District and Sessions Judge AT Wankhede found Mahesh Tembhurne (32) guilty and handed him a 20-year prison term under section 376 of the Indian Penal Code, along with a 10-year sentence under the provisions of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, according to Assistant Government Pleader Kailash Khandelwal.
Khandelwal highlighted that the sentence will be served consecutively, resulting in a total of 30 years of imprisonment for Tembhurne.
