Rapist and killer of Zainab given four death sentences
A man has been given four death sentences for the rape and murder of a six-year-old girl in Pakistan last month.
Zainab Ansari was abducted, sexually assaulted and killed in Kasur, a city in the country's Punjab region.
Forensic evidence linking Ali to the girl’s murder was presented in court and witnesses testified against him.
He was given death sentences for kidnapping, rape, murder and an act of terrorism, according to reports, as well as a life sentence for sodomy.
Last month, CCTV footage emerged which showed the child, who was on her way to a religious studies class, being led away by a man on the evening of 4 January.
Her body was found in a rubbish dump on 9 January. ---Courtesy to The Indpenent
