A local court has sentenced a staffer of a private school to 'one day in jail' after he was found guilty in a 2010 case pertaining to SC/ST Atrocities Act.

District and Special Judge V V Bambarde recently sentenced Lalchandra Chaube (28) to one day in jail, though he was later asked only to remain present in the courtroom till evening. A fine of Rs 5,000 was also imposed on him.
