A man from South Mizoram’s Lunglei district has been sentenced to 21 years of rigorous imprisonment by a special court under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offenses Act (POCSO) for raping his daughter.
The sentence handed down by Special Court Judge Vanlalenmawia on Wednesday also included a fine of Rs 12,000 for the convict Bawithawnghua.
Previously, on January 22, the special court found Bawithawnghua guilty under Section 6 of the POCSO Act and Section 506 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) for repeatedly assaulting and raping his 12-year-old daughter.
Bawithawnghua was arrested in September 2022 after a First Information Report (FIR) was filed by the Lai Women’s Association (LWA).
