The charges proven against him under IPC Sections 302 (murder), 376 (rape), 449 (house trespass) and 342 (wrongful confinement).Rejecting the defence plea for re-investigation by a Central Agency and considering the fact that an unarmed Jisha was brutally raped and killed after causing 32 injuries on her body including her genital organ, the Court said that the convict didn’t deserve any kindness and hence the maximum punishment was being awarded.
