UP’s Pratapgarh Court Sentences Man To Life Imprisonment For Killing Wife For Dowry

Uttar Pradesh’s Pratapgarh court has recently sentenced a man to life imprisonment for killing his wife for dowry in 2018.

District and Sessions Judge Abdul Shahid convicted and passed the sentence against Suraj Kumar Prajapati for killing his wife Sanju.

Sanju died in April 2018 following which her father lodged a case against Prajapati, alleging that he tortured and killed her as his dowry demand was not met.

District Government Counsel Yogesh Kumar stated, “Police filed a charge sheet in the case following investigation. After hearing both sides the judge announced Prajapati guilty and awarded him life imprisonment.”
