In a historic judgement, Additional District and Sessions Judge K G Rathi, on Monday, found 23-year-old Akash Bankat Yedani, guilty of raping a specially-abled minor girl and sentenced him to 20 years of imprisonment.
This was one kind of judgement given by any court in India. It was for the first time that an accused was sentenced to rigorous imprisonment under the POCSO Act, which was amended last year.
The POCSO Act, 2012 is an act passed by the Indian Parliament. It is a law, which provides the protection of children from the offences of sexual assault, sexual harassment and pornography.
Yeadni, who is a resident of Katol, reportedly took the advantage of the victim’s disability and raped the specially-abled minor girl back in November 2018.
According to officials, when the girl complained of stomach pain, her parents took her to the doctor. There, they found out that their daughter was two months pregnant.
After knowing about the incident, the victims parents lodged a complaint against Yedani at Kondhali Police Station.
Yeadni was booked under Sections 376(2)(N)(L), 376(3), 506 of the IPC and Sections 5(J)(2), 5(K), 5(L), 6, 9(L), 10 of POCSO Act.
After conducting a DNA test, it was confirmed that Yedani had sexually exploited the minor girl. The probe was conducted by API Shyam Gavane and Constable Sunil Admane.

Satish Ukey
Enforcement Directorate (ED) took the custody of RTI activist advocate Satish Ukey and his brother Pradeep Ukey after raiding the former’s residence at Parvati Nagar in Nagpur on Thursday morning at 7 am. Satish, who is also the lawyer of MPCC President Nana Patole, had filed an election petition against former Chief Minister and Leader of the Opposition (LoP) Devendra Fadnavis.
Ukey had alleged that Fadnavis hadn’t disclosed pending criminal cases against him while filing his nomination papers for the 2009 and 2014 Assembly elections, and thus violated the Representation of People’s Act, 1951. For the past few years, Ukey had also been filing petitions in court against several BJP leaders.
During the raid, an army of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel was also deployed under his house. The crime branch had issued a notice to Ukey regarding a land transaction in Nagpur.
