Lifetime imprisonment for a man who murdered his spouse.

In the town of Keonjhar, a man named Dilip Bentkar was recently sentenced to life imprisonment by the district sessions judge Ashok Kumar Panda. The reason? He was found guilty of brutally killing his wife Sabita Bentkar. The couple resided in Gopinathpur Sahi in Raisuan, under the Sadar block. The judge also imposed a fine of Rs 5,000 on Dilip, in addition to his imprisonment. If he fails to pay the penalty, he will have to serve an extra month of rigorous imprisonment, as per the judge's order. Additionally, the court has instructed the district legal services authority to provide financial aid to the couple's three children, who were left orphaned when their mother passed away and their father was imprisoned.

The public prosecutor Pradeep Kumar Das shared that the judge made this decision after carefully considering the statements of 11 witnesses, including three eye-witnesses. The final chargesheet presented by the police was also taken into account. The incident that led to Sabita's death took place on January 6, 2021, when Dilip got into a heated argument with his wife over a domestic issue. In a fit of rage, he physically assaulted her and ultimately killed her by striking her head with a brick near the puja mandap in the village. Sabita's brother, Madhusudan Bentkar, filed a complaint with the police, resulting in a murder case being registered against Dilip. He was soon arrested and taken to the Keonjhar district jail.

As we can see, the court has taken a strong stance against Dilip's heinous crime and has ensured that he receives the appropriate punishment for his actions. Moreover, the judge has also emphasized the importance of providing support to the innocent children who have been left without their parents. It is heartening to see the court's compassion towards the children's well-being in the midst of such a tragic and distressing situation. Let us hope that this verdict brings some closure and peace for the family of the deceased, and serves as a deterrent for anyone who may contemplate committing a similar crime in the future.
