He shall further undergo rigorous imprisonment for three years and a fine of Rs. 10,000 for the commission of offence under Section 363 RPC. Both the sentences shall run concurrently.
Rs. 25,000 shall be paid to the victim as compensation. In default of payment of fine, the convict shall further undergo rigorous imprisonment for one year. The period of detention already undergone during trial shall be set off from the sentences awarded to the convict.
