In a landmark verdict, the Visakhapatnam Special POCSO Court has delivered justice in the case of a man who was convicted of raping his own seven-year-old daughter. The court sentenced the accused, Chodipelli Muralikrishna, to 20 years of imprisonment, along with a fine of Rs 12,000 and compensation of Rs 4 lakhs to the victim.
The incident came to light when the victim’s grandmother received a distressing call from her seven-year-old granddaughter on July 14, 2022, at 8:30 PM. Concerned, she rushed to their home in Malkapuram Janata Colony. Despite the child’s silence, the grandmother persisted and learned that the girl’s father, who was also deaf and mute, had been sexually assaulting her over several days.
The case was registered at Malkapuram Police Station. The accused faced charges under U/S 376-AB, 506 IPC, and Sections 6 r/w 5(l)(m)(n) of the POCSO Act. After a thorough trial, Judge Anandi Garu of the Special POCSO Court pronounced the verdict, ensuring that justice prevailed.
