Such sexual offences have far reaching ramifications,&#8221; the court said.<\/p>\n<p>According to the complaint, Singh, a neighbour of the victim had on August 18, 2014, taken the girl to his house and raped her.<\/p>\n<p>Singh claimed that being a neighbour, the victim&#8217;s parents often quarrelled with him due to which he has been falsely implicated in the case. He also sought leniency saying his wife had expired and has to take care of his four minor children.<\/p>\n<p>Dismissing his contention as flimsy, the court said &#8220;such an offence having been committed with the child, makes it imperative that the offender is dealt with a firm hand and the mitigating circumstances of the convict cannot be given precedence over the pain, suffering and trauma of the victim child.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211; PTI )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Delhi court has sent a 40- year old man to jail for 14 years for raping an 8-year old girl, saying such people had perverted minds, carried &#8220;animal streak&#8221; who would ravish anyone.
