A court in Uttar Pradesh’s Shamli district on Wednesday convicted a man for raping a 14-year-old girl and sentenced him to 10 years in prison.
Special judge of POCSO (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences) court Mumtaz Ali also imposed a fine of Rs 20,000 on Shobi alias Shoaib. In case of non-payment of fine, the convict will have to undergo a further sentence of six months, government counsel Sanjay Chouhan said.

The trial was completed in 57 days, he said.
