Judge Orders Execution by Hanging for Chhattisgarh Child Murderer

Justice Chaturth FTSI, presiding over the POCSO special bench, ordered that the convicted uncle be placed in a no‑ose neck‑tie and hanged until death. The order underscores the court’s zero‑tolerance stance on sexual violence against children.

Besides the death sentence, the judgment includes a fine of ₹5,000 for each applicable section and a five‑year rigorous imprisonment term with a fine of ₹1,000 under Section 238 of the Indian Penal Code.
