PANJIM, OCT 4

The accused was convicted by additional sessions Judge Nutan Sardessai on Friday.

He was arrested and allegedly confessed to a string of offenses he committed.
The rickshaw driver has been booked for allegedly raping, killing, threatening and robbing 18 susceptible girls over a period of 15 years.

He has been acquitted in three cases with one conviction while other cases are on trial at different Courts.
