MUMBAI: A 33-year-old serial sex pest was handed life imprisonment on Tuesday for raping a 10-year-old girl in Andheri in 2014.
Convicting Ayyaz Ansari, special judge Surekha Patil of a Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (Pocso) Act court said the minor's evidence was reliable and inspired confidence.
The explicit visual record has made his a unique case and set the rape suspect and his defense on a course of showing that the taped sex acts were consensual.
Authorities point to the case as a startling warning about a malevolent use of Rohypnol, a drug often used to facilitate acquaintance rape.
During the two-month trial, the court heard that teenage girls in the South Yorkshire town were raped and beaten by men who passed them around. Brothers Arshid, 40, and Basharat Hussain, 39, were found guilty of multiple rapes and indecent assaults of teens.
A third brother, 36-year-old Bannaras Hussain, had admitted 10 charges of sexual abuse at the start of the trial, including rape, indecent assault, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.
The grandmother of a girl child aged 10 years would never implicate a person like the accused only since the police asked her to.
She will not dare to put dignity, reputation and honour of her girl child at stake.... The girl, one of the 12 witnesses examined, identified the accused in court.
The court refuted the defence plea that Ansari was falsely implicated by the child's grandmother, the complainant, under police pressure.
"There is no reason for the grandmother to implicate the accused.
