Chhattisgarh: 17-year-old porn addict rapes and kills 10-year-old neighbour, hangs body to make it look like suicide

-

Raipur: A heinous crime came to fore in Chhattisgarh’s Bemetara where a 17-year-old boy watched porn for hours and allegedly raped a 10-year-old girl who lived next door. The youth then killed the minor and hanged her body from a rod in her house.

Hanged body to make it look like suicide

The gut wrenching crime took place on 26 November in a village about 90 kilometre from Raipur.

The accused sneaked into the girl’s house from the terrace when she was alone and her parents were out at work.

After allegedly sexually assaulting the child, he killed her and hanged from a bamboo rod, making it look like a suicide or an accidental hanging, investigators said.

The police caught the youth lying after they realised that the girl could not have reached that high to tie a knot.

The accused, during the questioning, allegedly confessed to the crime, Bemetara district additional superintendent of police (Addl SP) Pankaj Patel said.

The girl’s autopsy report also revealed marks on her body that indicated that she had tried to fight back.

Youth addicted to watching porn

Pankaj Patel said that the accused confessed to the police that he was addicted to watching porn on his mobile.

“On Saturday (26 November), after watching porn, the accused barged into the girl’s house when she was alone and sexually assaulted her”, Patel said.

The senior cop further said fearing that the girl would tell her parents about the assault, the boy strangled her with a scarf. “Before leaving, he also hung her lifeless body in the house to pass off her death as a suicide,” the police said.

The accused then placed a chair next to the hanging body to show as if the girl hanged herself while playing.

After hanging her body, the accused laid her one-year-old sibling on the floor so that its cries would draw the neighbours, police said.

He then escaped from her house via the terrace. Later, he stepped out onto the street where he began gathering people from the neighbourhood saying that a baby was bawling in the locked home, investigators said.

The neighbours then alerted the girl’s parents who rushed back from work and saw their daughter hanging. They then filed a complaint at the local police station.

Police said that a case has been registered under sections 450 (house trespass), 376 (rape), 376 AB (rape of woman under twelve years of age), 302 (murder) and 201 (causing disappearance of evidence of offence) of the IPC and provisions of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offence (POCSO) Act relating to penetrative sexual assault.

Both COVID-19 vaccine doses needed for good protection against B16172 variant

-
It’s been a concerning few weeks in the UK, with the B16172 variant first taking hold and then spreading to become dominant. This more infectious form of the virus, initially identified in India, is what we’re now going to have to live with – unless it is out-competed by another variant in the future. Worryingly, experts had predicted that B16172 might be able to escape some of the effects of vaccines, which if true would threaten to derail the UK’s plans to finish lifting restrictions from the end of June. However, Public Health England (PHE) has looked at the ability of various variants to evade immunity and says that the UK’s vaccines remain effective against the variants circulating, including B16172. On the surface, this looks like good news. But delve a bit deeper, and things get more complicated, says Paul Hunter, professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia. PHE’s research found a little drop-off in protection against B16172 among people who were fully vaccinated.

New coronavirus variant emerge in India: How should our COVID response change?

-

After genome sequencing of over 10,000 COVID-19 cases in India, researchers have discovered a new variant with two new mutations which may be better at evading the immune system. In 15-20 percent of samples from the Indian state of Maharashtra (the state accounting for 62 percent of cases in the country) a new, double mutation in key areas of the virus has been detected. These are now known as the E484Q and L452R mutations. What makes the variant different? Both these mutations are concerning because they are located in a key portion of the virus – the spike protein – that it uses to penetrate human cells. Spike proteins attach via a “receptor binding domain”, meaning the virus can attach to receptors in our cells. These new mutations include changes to the spike protein that make it a “better fit” for human cells. This means the virus can gain entry more easily and multiply faster. Given what we have seen with other similar mutations , it might also make it harder for our immu

Aditya L1 Mission: Spacecraft is nearing its final phase, says ISRO chief

-
Aditya L1 spacecraft is nearing its final phase, and manoeuvres to enter the L1 point are expected to be completed by January 7, 2024, according to ISRO Chairman S Somanath. “Aditya is on the way. I think it has reached almost its final phase,” the ISRO chief told PTI on the sidelines of an event organised at VSSC to commemorate the 60th year of the First Sounding Rocket Launch. Aditya L1, India’s first space-based mission to study the Sun, was successfully launched on September 2 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) in Sriharikota. The spacecraft, after travelling about 1.5 million km from Earth over 125 days, is expected to be placed in a Halo orbit around the Lagrangian point L1, considered closest to the Sun. He said that the last preparations for the spacecraft’s entry into the L1 point are currently underway incrementally.”Possibly by January 7th, the final manoeuvres will be done for entering into the L1 point,” Somanath added. Among other tasks, it will capture and tr
