Child rape-murder case: Brutality alone no ground for death, says MP HC

A division bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court's Gwalior bench commuted the death sentence of a man convicted of raping and murdering a nine-year-old girl to life imprisonment for the remainder of his natural life. While upholding his conviction, the court ruled the case was heinous but did not meet the “rarest of rare” standard.
