Mumbai court says life term for rapist dad too harsh, gives 20 years

A special judge in Mumbai sentenced a 40-year-old man to 20 years of rigorous imprisonment for repeatedly raping his 13-year-old daughter. The judge opted against a life sentence, considering the lack of family support for the victim and her sisters, the father's good behavior in jail, and absence of prior criminal record.
