Man gets 5 year jail term for assault on woman

Tura, Nov 26: A man who assaulted and outraged the modesty of a woman has been given five years prison term by a court in North Garo Hills.

Tapon R Marak was convicted by the Court of the Chief Judicial Magistrate in Resubelpara, North Garo Hills, on November 21, and ordered to undergo five years simple imprisonment.
