Three Sentenced to 10 Years for Attempted Murder in Dowry Harassment Case in DelhiPreviousNext

In southeast Delhi's Kalindi Kunj area, a local court sentenced three individuals—Amir Khan, his mother Nasrin, and brother Sonu alias Firoz—to 10 years of rigorous imprisonment for attempting to murder a woman by throwing her from a second-floor balcony in February 2022. The victim had alleged ongoing dowry-related harassment by the accused. The fall caused severe spinal injuries, leaving her permanently paralyzed below the waist.
