Man gets seven years in jail in two molestation cases

A sessions court sentenced a 33-year-old man to seven years in jail in two cases of molestation.

Ayyaz Ansari alias 'Kanya' or 'one-eye molester' had been sentenced to life imprisonment in April this year for raping a minor girl in yet another case.

He had acquired the moniker 'serial molester'.

In 2013, suburban Juhu police had registered a case against him when he had molested a 13-year-old girl.

The court today awarded Ansari seven years' imprisonment and imposed a fine of Rs 35,000, of which Rs 25,000 would be paid to the victim.

The second case of molestation -- also involving a minor girl -- was registered in March 2013. In this case too, he was awarded seven years in jail. The court also imposed a fine of Rs 15,000, of which Rs 10,000 would be paid to the victim.
