LARKANA: An Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) on Saturday sentenced Siraj Kalhoro to 25 years in prison on charges of sexually assaulting and murdering a 9-year-old in Larkana.
Kalhoro was ordered to pay a fine of Rs 1 lac, failure of which will result in a one-year extension in his prison sentence.

Dead body of the 9-year-old was found from a pond, while tests later revealed that she had been subjected to sexual assault before being murdered.
