Ex-MLA Kishore Samrite Sentenced for Parliament Threat
A former politician, Kishore Samrite, was sentenced to six months in jail.
He sent a threatening letter and a suspicious package to the place where laws are made, Parliament.
He was upset about unmet demands.
The court decided he should be punished for threatening to blow up the Parliament.
Though the package contained a suspicious substance, it wasn't actually explosive, so he wasn't charged for that specifically.
The court also imposed a fine.
This aims to deter others from similar actions.
