A 33-year-old man was convicted by a special Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO) court in Dindoshi to six years of rigorous imprisonment for repeatedly raping a 13-year-old girl, who was employed to take care of his child. The court also slapped with a fine of Rs 30,000 on the convict.

According to the Times of India, the girl started living with her mother's cousin in 2013 after her father passed away in 2007 and her family was struggling financially. The man would sexually assault the girl after his wife would leave for work. The accused would also threaten the girl against telling anyone about the assault, due to which she initially remained quiet. When her mother sensed something amiss, she brought the girl back home after which she confided in her about the assault.
