INDIA: GUJARAT HC COMMUTES DEATH SENTENCE IN RAPE AND MURDER CASE

August 6, 2013: The Gujarat High Court commuted the death sentence awarded to two convicts in the 2007 Chandni rape and murder case, to life imprisonment.
A division bench of the Gujarat High Court headed by Justices Akil Kureshi and R P Dholaria ruled that the case was not a fit one to fall into the “rarest of the rare” category.
The High Court commuted death sentences awarded to Mohan Hamir and Mahesh Chauhan alias Bhado by a Junagadh sessions court in December 2011 to life imprisonment of 30 years and 20 years respectively.
Besides sentencing Hamir and Mahesh to death for murdering Chandni and raping her friend, the Junagadh sessions court had also imposed a fine of Rs 25,000 each on the two accused.
The incident took place on May 13, 2007 when Rajkot-based Ramjibhai Vinjvadiya’s family had gone to Datar mountain in Junagadh for a pilgrimage with daughter Chandni (15) and her 18-year-old female friend.
On the way down from Dattatreya temple, the two girls fell behind the others, when the accused Hamir and his friend Mahesh Chauhan alias Bhado, who were both drunk, abducted them.
After Chandni resisted, Hamir slit her throat with a knife and killed her. Later, they raped Chandni’s female friend before fleeing the spot. (Sources: PTI, 06/08/2013)
