Three persons were on Friday sentenced to 20 years imprisonment by a court in Jaipur for raping a Japanese tourist on the Jaipur-Ajmer National Highway in February.
Three other persons were found guilty of raping the tourist but the quantum of their sentence is yet to be decided by the court of Additional District Judge, Jaipur district, Girish Kumar Ojha, who also acquitted three others accused.
Main accused Ajit Singh Choudhary and his two friends - Abrar and Wahid, were awarded 20-year imprisonment under Section 376 D and others.
Dharmveer, Ravindra and Rajveer were acquitted while judgement on Ramraj, Shivraj and Ramveer is reserved and awaited, according to public prosecutor Bhanwar Singh.
The victim had come to Jaipur as a tourist and was visiting Jal Mahal when Choudhary lured her on the pretext of taking her for sightseeing.
Choudhary took her to a few tourist places during the day on his motorcycle and raped her on the intervening night of February 8 and 9 at a deserted place near Mojamabad village in Dudu. He was caught on February 13.
