Cuttack, Odisha: <\/b><\/p>\n

Upholding the order of a trial court, the Orissa High Court on Wednesday sentenced a man to 20 years of imprisonment for repeatedly raping her sister and impregnating her when she was 14.<\/p>\n

Rejecting the appeal of the convict, Justice S K Sahoo also slapped a fine of Rs 40,000 on him. In default, the convict shall undergo rigorous imprisonment for another two years.<\/p>\n

The judge lamented that he had to adjudicate such a case on the day of Raksha Bandhan.<\/p>\n

“It is both shocking as well as ironical to hear this case and render judgment on an auspicious day when a brother takes the solemn pledge not only to protect his sister but also to nurture her till his last breath,” Justice Sahoo observed.<\/p>\n

The man was earlier convicted by the Malkangiri special judge’s court for repeatedly raping his younger sister between May 2018 and May 2019 in their village.<\/p>\n

He was also convicted in January 2020 for threatening his sister not to disclose it to others.\u00a0<\/p>\n
