A local court in LB Nagar sentenced a 23-year-old man, P Mahendra (also known as Mahindra), to one year of rigorous imprisonment in connection with the sexual harassment case involving a minor girl, which was reported in 2023. In addition to the imprisonment, the court imposed a fine of Rs 2,000 on him.
Mahendra, a private employee from Hasthinapuram and a native of Andhra Pradesh, had been stalking the girl and pressuring her to reciprocate his feelings. After a complaint was filed, the LB Nagar police arrested him.
The court also directed that Mahendra pay a compensation of Rs 50,000 to the victim.
