Shillong, Aug 14: The court of NA Khan, District and Sessions Judge of West Jaintia Hills, has convicted one Patrick Dhar of murder, sentencing the guilty party to life imprisonment for the crime.
Specifically, Dhar was found guilty and sentenced on Wednesday of culpable homicide amounting to murder. He was also fined Rs 5,000, which if he does not pay will result in one month’s simple imprisonment.
The case goes back to May 2010 when one Bil Lamare filed an FIR at Jowai Police Station alleging that her brother, Rosingmon Lamare, had been murdered at Barato by his brother-in-law Interly Talang and Dhar. The official release today did not mention Talang’s fate.
