Kundapur, Feb 14: Kundapur district and sessions court has convicted a man for the rape and inhuman murder of a pregnant woman that shocked the coastal Karnataka three years ago. The court will pronounce the sentence on February 20.
Details of the incident
Prashanth Mogaveera, a sex maniac, had come to the house of Moodugopadi resident, pregnant woman Indira on April 11, 2015 on the pretext of requesting for drinking water. Prashanth had raped the woman, killed her by throwing a boulder on her and robbed her necklace.
Kundapur police, who saw him fleeing with blood soaked clothes, had arrested him. As he had raped and killed the woman in the most inhuman way, the court had rejected bail for him.
Special government prosecutor Ravikiran Murdeshwar argued in the case.
As all the allegations against him were proved, the court convicted him.
