Earlier on Friday, the court held the accused Kishore Bhayya guilty of rape under section 376 of the Indian Penal Code, 506 (death threat) and sections 5 and 6 of POCSO Act relating to repeated sexual atrocity.
Kishore Bhayya, a resident of the city had cajoled his 13-year-old daughter into having sex with him and then raped her when his wife was admitted to a hospital for delivery in 2016. He had also posed a threat to kill her and the girl reportedly remained silent on the issue. Thereafter he raped her several times, as a result of which the girl became pregnant and gave birth to a baby girl.
Later, the harassed girl’s mother filed a complaint at the women’s police station here against her husband. The DNA test of the baby proved that Kishore Bhayya was the biological father.
