A young girl was raped in the Kosamba and the case was heard and concluded within 130 days. The court sentenced the accused, Munna Paswan and Raju, to life imprisonment. Gujarat has witnessed a concerning trend in reported rape cases over recent years. Despite the arrest of 8,480 individuals in connection with these crimes, 267 accused remain at large. Alarmingly, 64 of these individuals have evaded arrest for over two years, underscoring challenges in the state’s law enforcement and judicial processes.
