Sundargarh: The POCSO Court here on Saturday sentenced Mahat Munda, a resident of Chakramal village under Sundargarh Sadar police station limits, to 10 years of rigorous imprisonment (RI) for repeatedly raping and impregnating a minor girl.
The court also imposed a fine of ₹20,000 on Munda.
According to case details, Mahat Munda lured the minor victim, subjected her to repeated sexual assault, and impregnated her.
