The Special Court for trial of POCSO cases sentenced a 25-year-old man to 20 years of imprisonment for sexually assaulting a minor girl.
According to the police, Dhanapal (25), a daily wager, attempted to sexually assault an eight-year-old girl from his neighbourhood in 2018. The victim informed her parents and based on a complaint from the victim’s mother, a team led by Inspector Indira from the Omalur All Women Police Station registered a case and arrested the accused.
The election authorities are gearing up for the counting of votes cast in the simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and Assembly seats in Andhra Pradesh, scheduled to be held on June 4. The Collectors and Election Officers of Visakhapatnam, Anakapalli and Alluri Sitharama Raju (ASR) districts said on May 23 (Thursday) that their teams were ready for the counting of votes.
Responding to the prolonged water scarcity, the residents of the area took to the streets in protest on Wednesday. The protest, which drew attention to their plight, stopped only after the intervention of the police. It was not until 1.30 p.m. that a 4000-litre tanker was finally delivered by BWSSB, providing relief to the water-starved residents.
