NEW DELHI: An Indian court Tuesday found a man guilty of raping and murdering a law student in a frenzied knife attack in southern Kerala state that sparked nationwide outrage. The murdered student was found dead in a pool of blood in her home in Perumbavoor town on April 28, 2016, with nearly 30 stab wounds and bite marks on her severely disfigured corpse. Muhammed Ameer was convicted by a district court in Kerala over the brutal attack, which drew comparisons with the high-profile gang-rape and murder of a Delhi student in 2012. “The court found him guilty of rape, murder and trespass,” B. A. Aloor, Islam’s lawyer told AFP. He said Ameer would be sentenced Wednesday, with prosecutors seeking the death penalty. The court was told that the crime was the “rarest of the rare” — an expression reserved in Indian courts for crimes that result in capital punishment.
