A Pune court sentences Bhimrao Kamble, 64–65 years old, to death for raping and murdering a child. The court describes the case as among the “rarest of rare,” citing the severity and nature of the offence. According to the prosecution, Kamble lures the girl on May 1 by offering snacks and promising to show her a newborn calf. The girl is then taken to a shed near a cattle barn, where the prosecution says he sexually assaults her and kills her. The court’s sentencing follows conviction in the rape-murder case and results in the death penalty being imposed on Kamble. The reports from both outlets emphasize the court’s characterization of the case as exceptionally grave, alongside the prosecution’s account of how the child is brought to the isolated location where the assault and killing occur.
