Sub-Inspector Convicted of Rape After Luring Woman on Facebook

A Jagdalpur police sub-inspector has been found guilty of rape and bigamy, receiving sentences of ten and five years respectively, to be served consecutively for a total of 15 years. The victim reported that the officer met her on Facebook, representing himself as single/divorced.
