3 men sentenced to life for rape, murder of 8-year-old Kathua girl

JAMMU LINKS NEWS | Three men convicted for gang-rape and murder of the eight-year-old Kathua girl have been sentenced to life in jail. A Pathankot court, which had convicted six people a few hours earlier, sentenced three others with five years in jail for destroying evidence to shield the rapists. Sanji Ram, a retired revenue department official, Deepak Khajuria, a special police officer and Parvesh Kumar have been spared the death penalty that prosecutors had asked for and ruled that they would spend their life behind bars. Police officials Tilak Raj, Anand Dutta and Surender Verma have been sentenced to five years under section 201 of the Ranbir Penal Code for destruction of evidence. A seventh accused, Vishal - son of main accused Sanji Ram - was acquitted by the court, giving him the ‘benefit of doubt’. The eighth accused, reported to be a juvenile, was not put on trial because the high court is yet to rule on a petition about his age.
