On the basis of the victim's statement and corroborating DNA evidence, which established that the accused and the girl were the biological parents of the foetus she conceived, the jury declared the man guilty on Saturday.
Mostly based on the victim's statement and accompanying DNA evidence, which revealed that the accused and the girl were the biological parents of the foetus she conceived, the verdict, which was handed down on Saturday, found the man guilty. Given that the offender is responsible for providing for his wife and an unmarried daughter, the court had some leeway in imposing the punishment. It reaffirmed that the victim was older than sixteen at the time of the incident and had sufficient knowledge of the situation.
