A Special Court held Pathan guilty under IPC section 376 (rape) and 450 (trespassing) yesterday, Additional Public Prosecutor Ritiesh Mewara said today.
Judge Deepachand Joshi sentenced Pathan to seven-year imprisonment and also imposed a fine of Rs 2,000, he said.
Pathan was also sentenced to five-year jail term under Section 450 of the IPC and a fine of Rs 1,000 was imposed on him, Mewara said.
Both the sentences will run simultaneously, he added.
Pathan, also a Congress leader, was arrested after a woman lodged a rape case against him at Mahaveernagar Police Station on September 24, 2011.
