A POCSO court in Kota (Rajasthan) has sentenced a 26-year-old man to 20-year imprisonment for abducting and raping a minor girl in Bundi district in Rajasthan three years ago.

Public Prosecutor Rakesh Thakore stated that the court convicted Mohsin Khan, a resident of Bundi City area, based on the DNA test report and circumstantial evidence.

Based on the girl’s statement, Khan was booked under relevant sections of the IPC and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and arrested. Three other accused in the case, who aided the convict in the crime, were acquitted.
