As per the police reports, Kona Mahesh (28), a worker at a cashew farm, and Nanaji (24), a carpenter, raped the teenage girl seven years ago. The two men then strangled her to death and set her body on fire with petrol to erase the evidence. This rape and murder case was recorded in the Appannapalem Village in Pultadi Gairammapeta, Golugonda Mandal, Visakhapatnam District.
In its recent judgement, the special court ruled 20 years of imprisonment under IPC section 302, 20 years under three sections of the POCSO Act, and seven years under IPC section 376.
