Serial Rapist Whose Death Penalty Was Cancelled Rapes & Kills 11-Year-Old in MP
In a shocking and disturbing incident, a 40-year-old man who had previously spent 10 years in jail for raping a five-year-old and was sentenced to death for raping an eight-year-old, has allegedly committed another heinous crime. This time, he has been accused of raping and murdering an 11-year-old hearing- and speech-impaired girl in Madhya Pradesh.
The accused, Ramesh, had escaped after committing the crime and went to the Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, where he was eventually caught by the police. The incident has sent shockwaves across the country, highlighting the devastating consequences of canceling the death penalty for repeat offenders.
According to the police, the 11-year-old girl was playing outside her home in the Sarangpur area of Jabalpur district when Ramesh abducted her. He took her to a nearby forest and allegedly raped and murdered her. The victim’s body was found with severe injuries, and the police launched an investigation to identify the accused.
Ramesh’s criminal record is a chilling reminder of the need for stricter laws and enforcement to protect children from sexual predators. In 2003, he was arrested for raping a five-year-old girl and spent 10 years in jail. However, instead of serving the full term, he was released early and went on to commit another heinous crime in 2014. This time, he was sentenced to death for raping an eight-year-old girl.
Despite his criminal history, Ramesh’s death penalty was cancelled, allowing him to walk free again. The cancellation of his death sentence sent a wrong message to society, emboldening him to commit another crime.
The incident has sparked outrage among the public, with many demanding stricter laws and enforcement to protect children from sexual predators. The police have arrested Ramesh and are investigating the case, but the incident has raised questions about the effectiveness of the justice system in preventing such crimes.
The case has also highlighted the need for better protection and support for children with disabilities, such as the 11-year-old victim who was hearing- and speech-impaired. The police and other authorities must ensure that such children are protected from sexual predators and receive adequate support and assistance.
The incident is a grim reminder of the need for a collective effort to prevent such crimes from happening in the future. As a society, we must work together to create a safer and more just environment for all, especially for children who are most vulnerable to exploitation.
The accused, Ramesh, is currently in police custody and will face trial for his latest crime. However, the incident serves as a stark reminder of the need for stricter laws and enforcement to protect children from sexual predators.
