Woman sentenced to life for killing husband
New Delhi, May 29 (IANS) A court here has awarded a life term to a woman for killing her husband.
The incident took place in mid-2010 when Guddi thrashed her husband Raju to death at their Palam Extension residence in Delhi.
"Guddi wrapped her husband's body in a plastic mat, which was later recovered from the house," said the court in its order Saturday.
"The act has been committed in utter frustration", Additional Sessions Judge N.K. Kaushik said, adding that during the investigations and trial, the court was unable to unearth the motive for the murder.
Guddi was convicted by the court relying on circumstantial evidence and on the deposition of witnesses.
"It appears that the murder was caused in a moment of emotional disturbance prompted by the utter sense of frustration and disappointment in the mind of the convict, who belongs to the poor section of the society," said the court.
