Rape convict Asaram surrenders to Jodhpur jail after the High Court upholds his life imprisonment sentence. According to reporting, the court’s decision confirms the life term while adjusting the scope of the conviction. The High Court acquits Asaram of certain additional charges, including allegations related to gang rape and gang penetrative sexual assault of a minor girl under the IPC and the POCSO Act. Both outlets describe the surrender occurring following the High Court’s ruling, indicating that the conviction’s main outcome—life imprisonment—remains in place. The acquittal portion means that while Asaram continues to serve the life sentence that is upheld, specific charges tied to gang assault and related offences against the child are not sustained by the appellate court. The reporting focuses on the post-ruling surrender and the revised legal findings accompanying the upheld sentence.
