Madurai (Tamil Nadu) : A court in Madurai Monday sentenced a 26-year-old man to death for raping and murdering a nine-year-old girl who sold flowers near a temple here.
S. Selvam deserved “no mercy”, Judge R. Siddharthan ruled on the 2006 case.
“The accused deserves no mercy since he took the life of a child that trusted him in her innocence,” he observed.
The victim’s body was found after a two-day search in this temple town, about 400 km from the state capital Chennai, prosecution lawyers said.
