A Special Court on Friday sentenced former Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) MLA from Perambalur, M. Rajkumar, to 10 years of imprisonment in connection with the rape and death of a 15-year-old girl, who was brought to his house from Kerala on the pretext of being provided education, in 2012.
His associate, Jaishankar, also a functionary of the DMK, was handed a similar sentence.
‘Dignity shattered’
Special Judge J.Shanthi said: “ The 15-year-old girl, who was supposed to spend time in cheerfulness, was dealt with [in an] animal passion and her dignity and purity of physical frame was shattered. Even her life was taken away by the accused in a brutal manner and the crime is heinous.”
