Multiple Murderers Sentenced to Life
Three men were sentenced to life in prison for different murder cases.
Charanjit Singh, a UK citizen, killed an elderly couple in Ludhiana because he believed they were treating his sister badly.
Raj, a 54-year-old man from Faridabad, was found guilty of killing six people, including three minors, after they resisted his attempts to molest them.
Ajay, from Chandigarh, was sentenced for the murder of a youth named Sanjay Yadav.
