Three sentenced to life for TMC councillor's murder

Three sentenced to life for TMC councillor's murder

Three men were sentenced to life in prison for killing a local politician named Anupam Dutta.

This happened in March 2022 when the politician was shot while returning home.

The men were found guilty because they tried to take over some land that the politician didn't want them to have.

The court also made them pay a fine.

The politician's family is happy with the decision but wished the men got a harsher punishment.

The men say they were wrongly accused.
