In a tragic conclusion to a four-year-old murder case, the District Court in Sheopur, Madhya Pradesh, has sentenced three individuals, including a local Youth Congress leader, to life imprisonment. The violent incident, which involved the use of a sword, resulted in the death of one man following a dispute over inappropriate messages.
According to the prosecution, Dharm Singh Meena, the district president of the Youth Congress, was accused of sending inappropriate messages to the wife of Raman Meena. This led Raman, accompanied by his cousin Radharaman, to confront Dharm Singh at his residence in Sheopur’s Crusher Colony. The confrontation escalated when Dharm Singh, provoked by the accusation, attacked Raman Meena with a sword, inflicting fatal injuries.
The altercation also resulted in injuries to Raman’s cousin, Radharaman, who was beaten by the accused and other accomplices. Despite being rushed to the hospital in Sheopur and later referred to medical facilities in Kota and Jaipur, Raman Meena succumbed to his injuries.
