Elderly Man Sentenced to 20 Years for Raping Minor in Pratapgarh

In Pratapgarh, a 60-year-old man named Hari Prasad Maurya has been put in jail for 20 years.

This is because he hurt a 7-year-old girl by raping her.

The court decided this was a very serious crime.

The man was also told to pay a fine of ₹50,000.

The judge said this money should go to the little girl to help her with the pain and trouble this caused her.

The incident happened last year when the girl was playing outside.

The man, who was drunk, took her inside his house and did a bad thing to her.

The police caught him, and the court found him guilty based on all the evidence.
