Justice Delivered in Heinous Crime: Father-Son Duo Convicted for Rape and Murder of Minor

A Delhi court has convicted Rajender and his father Ram Saran for the rape and murder of a minor girl in 2019. The court found compelling circumstantial and forensic evidence proving the duo’s involvement. Rajender was found guilty of rape, murder, and kidnapping, with Saran complicit in the murder.

In a landmark judgment, a Delhi court has convicted Rajender, 27, and his father, Ram Saran, 57, for the brutal rape and murder of a minor girl in 2019. The victim was reported missing on February 9, and her body was discovered two days later.

The court, led by Additional Sessions Judge Babita Puniya, ruled that the prosecution established a comprehensive chain of evidence proving the accused's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Rajender's DNA matched samples found on the victim, and both men were implicated through strong circumstantial evidence.

Rajender faced charges under multiple sections, including the POCSO Act, while Saran was found guilty of murder under the IPC. The prosecution demonstrated that the crime was committed to satisfy lust, with forensic evidence corroborating their claims. The court dismissed defense arguments of police framing, concluding with a decisive order against the duo.
