A local court has sentenced a man and his parents to life imprisonment for killing his wife for dowry in 2013.
The court has also imposed a penalty of Rs 20,000 each on Vikram Gond, father-in-law Subhnarain and mother-in-law Prema Devi, who had immolated the victim Arti in May 2013 over dowry.
The victim’s family had lodged an FIR against Arti’s husband and in-laws, the prosecution said.
After hearing both the sides Ballia district judge Chandrahas Ram held the trio guilty yesterday.
