Anna University sexual assault case: Gnanasekar gets life imprisonment for 30 years without remission

 The Mahila Court in Chennai on Monday (June 2, 2025) sentenced the lone convict Gnanasekar, 37, in the Anna University sexual assault case to life imprisonment for minimum period of 30 years without remission.

Last week, the court held him guilty of offences under 11 provisions, including Section 64(1)(rape) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), and convicted him under those provisions. The court scheduled the pronouncement of the sentence on Monday.

Gnanasekar was brought to the court campus in a police van from the Central Prison, Puzhal, on Monday, amidst tight security. He was produced before trial court (Mahila Court) judge M. Rajalakshmi.

Reading out the sentence, the judge said: “For the charge under Section 64(1) of the BNS, you are sentenced to life imprisonment for a minimum period of 30 years without remission. Also, a ₹25,000-fine is imposed under this section, and if you default to pay the fine, you will have to undergo simple imprisonment for three months.”

The court gave separate sentences, ranging from one month to 10 years imprisonment, for the conviction, and levied more fines under 10 more sections of the BNS, Information Technology Act, and Tamil Nadu Prohibition of Harassment of Woman Act. All the sentences will run concurrently, and a total fine of ₹90,000 has been imposed on Gnanasekar.

The judge also ordered that the State government pay compensation to the survivor in the case.
What is the case about?

The incident occurred on December 23, 2024, when the survivor, a 19-year-old student, and her friend were out on the Anna University campus. Gnanasekar, who ran a biryani outlet, entered the campus in the evening, blackmailed the duo, and went on to sexually assault the student in a secluded spot. He also videographed the act on his phone, according to the charge sheet.

The Madras High Court-appointed Special Investigation Team (SIT), comprising women officers, had probed the sexual assault case, which had sparked massive outrage in the State, and had named history-sheeter Gnanasekar as the lone accused.

Gnanasekar was charged under 11 provisions of the law, including Sections 331(6) (lurking trespass by night), 126(2) (wrongfully restraining any person), 140(4) (kidnapping in order to subject a person to grievous hurt), 75(2) (sexual harassment) read with 64(1) (rape), among other provisions of the BNS, Information Technolgy Act, and Tamil Nadu Prohibition of Harassment of Woman Act.

Terrorism is Pakistan’s war strategy, India to respond accordingly: PM Modi

 Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday (May 27, 2025) said terrorism practiced by Pakistan is not a proxy war but a deliberate war strategy and India will respond accordingly. Pakistan is engaging in war through terrorism, Mr. Modi said, while speaking about Operation Sindoor at the urban development programme of Gujarat Government. “We can't call this a proxy war as those who were killed on May 6 night [in Indian strikes on terror camps in Pakistan] were given state honours in Pakistan. Pakistani flags were draped over their coffins, and their military saluted them,” Mr. Modi said. “This proves that these terrorist activities are not just a proxy war but a deliberate war strategy on their part. If they engage in war, then the response will be accordingly,” he said. Mr. Modi said that whenever India and Pakistan went to war, Indian armed forces defeated Pakistan in a way the neighbouring country would never forget. “Realising they could never win a direct war against India, they ...

Shashi Tharoor ‘disappointed’ that Colombia expressed sympathies with Pakistan during Operation Sindoor

 Congress MP Shashi Tharoor has said India was disappointed with the Colombian government for expressing condolences over the loss of lives in Pakistan during Operation Sindoor, rather than sympathising with the victims of the Pahalgam terror attack. The Congress MP, who is leading a multiparty delegation to Colombia, stated on Thursday (May 29, 2025) that India was only exercising its right to self-defence. “We were a little disappointed in the reaction of the Colombian government, which apparently expressed heartfelt condolences on the loss of lives in Pakistan after the Indian strikes, rather than sympathising with the victims of terrorism,” he said. “Disappointed”: Shashi Tharoor as Colombia condemns deaths in Pakistan after Operation Sindoor  “We will say to our friends in Colombia, there can be no equivalence between those who dispatch terrorists and those who resist them. There can be no equivalence between those who attack and those who defend. We are only exercising o...
