A POCSO court in Kochi (Kerala) on Saturday convicted the lone accused in the sensational Aluva rape and murder case of a five-year-old girl from Bihar.
Special POCSO (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences) court judge K Soman convicted Ashfaq Alam, a migrant labourer from Bihar.
The judge has ruled that the accused is guilty of all charges and has scheduled a hearing for November 9 to pronounce the quantum of sentence. The conviction has come 99 days after the heinous crime took place. According to the prosecution’s case, on July 28, the five-year-old girl was abducted, brutally raped, and tragically killed, allegedly by Ashfaq Alam, who resided in the same building as the victim.
Later, her lifeless body was discovered in a sack in a marshy area situated behind a local market in the nearby Aluva region on July 29.
