Four Sentenced to Life for 2014 Murder of Shiv Sena Leader
In 2014, someone killed a Shiv Sena leader named Mohan Raut.
Now, four people have been sentenced to spend their lives in prison for this crime.
The judge did not believe the crime was organized, so some special charges were dismissed.
Three other people were found not guilty because there wasn't enough proof to say they did it.
The judge also stated that while the crime was bad, it wasn't considered one of the worst of cases.
Four individuals have been sentenced to life imprisonment for the 2014 murder of Shiv Sena leader Mohan Raut.

Mohan Raut, a deputy chief of Shiv Sena's Badlapur City unit, was killed on May 23, 2014.
