A local court has sentenced a man to life in prison for the murder of his wife in Shadnagar, a case that dates back to 2020. In addition to the life sentence, the court has also imposed a fine of ₹25,000 on the convicted individual.
The accused, J. Ramesh (36), a farmer from Annaram in Farooknagar, frequently engaged in heated arguments with his wife, J. Lalitha (30), subjecting her to both mental and physical abuse over trivial issues. Following one such dispute, Ramesh violently attacked her with a knife, resulting in severe injuries. Lalitha succumbed to her injuries while receiving medical treatment.
The Shadnagar police swiftly registered a case and apprehended Ramesh in connection with the incident.
