Overview
- Police say a three‑year‑old girl was lured to a cowshed and allegedly raped and killed on May 1, and a 65‑year‑old man has been charged in the Nasrapur case.
- Investigators filed an about 1,100‑page chargesheet that invokes multiple Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita sections and POCSO offences, and formal charges were framed at the end of May.
- Prosecutors relied on medical and post‑mortem findings, CCTV and other electronic evidence that forensic and cyber experts authenticated in court.
- The prosecution examined roughly 53–55 witnesses and produced more than 355 documents before telling the special court it had completed its evidence; the court has fixed June 19 to record the accused’s statement and has sought probation reports on his background and jail conduct.
- The case is being tried in a fast‑track, in‑camera court to protect the child’s identity and the next phase—accused’s statement followed by final arguments—will determine the timeline to judgment and possible sentencing.
