A Bihar court found the husband guilty of killing his pregnant wife and sentenced him, while the mother‑in‑law was cleared of all charges.
The trial concluded in a Bihar district court where the husband was convicted of murdering his pregnant spouse. The judgment affirmed his guilt and resulted in a criminal sentence as per the applicable law.
In the same proceedings, the mother‑in‑law, who had been a co‑accused, was acquitted of all charges after the court found insufficient evidence to sustain the prosecution's case.
The verdict underscores the judiciary's stance on domestic violence and homicide, reinforcing legal accountability for such crimes in the state.
