Faridabad Man Sentenced to 20 Years for Repeated Sexual Assault of Minor Daughter
A Faridabad court sentenced a 48-year-old man to 20 years of rigorous imprisonment for repeatedly raping his 13-year-old daughter over two years. The abuse was initially disbelieved by the mother and brother until the girl secretly recorded an assault on a hidden phone, which became key evidence. The court also imposed fines and awarded the girl compensation under the Haryana Victim Compensation Scheme. The case was registered following a complaint at Ballabgarh women's police station and involved multiple charges under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act and Indian Penal Code.
