A Mumbai POCSO court sentenced a 48-year-old man to ten years in prison for sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl in 2016, citing severe emotional impact on the victim.
The court of sub-divisional judicial magistrate Bhupinder Mittal has sentenced Yashpal Sharma, a resident of Haibowal Khurd in Ludhiana, to three years of imprisonment for forgery.
The ruling establishes clear boundaries for sentencing in attempted murder cases, as it reinforced the legislative intent and the proportionality principle.
