New Delhi, Nov 22 : A court here has convicted a man for the offences of committing sexual assault and sexual harassment, respectively, on two girls, saying the prosecution's evidence was trustworthy, consistent and inspired confidence.

Assistant Sessions Judge Kumar Rajat was hearing a case against Shrikant, who was accused of sexually assaulting a minor, besides sexually harassing another underage female, staying in a women's welfare institution on December 14, 2014. 

"The essence of the woman's modesty is her sex and the culpable intention of the accused is the crux of the matter and the reaction of women is very relevant," the judge said in the verdict passed on Tuesday.
