WASHINGTON: An Indian techie from Tamil Nadu was sentenced to nine years of
imprisonment on Thursday on charges of a "brazen sexual assault"
against a fellow female passenger inside a commercial airplane early this year.
Prabhu Ramamoorthy, 35, who came to the US on a H-1B visa in
2015, will be deported after he serves his sentence, a federal court in Detroit
said as it sentenced the Indian national to nine years of imprisonment.
Judge Terrence Berge hoped it would be grave enough to deter
others from committing similar crimes. Federal prosecutors had sought 11 years
of imprisonment for Ramamoorthy.
