Meerut Court Sentences Woman and Lover to Death for Husband's Murder Staged as Snakebite
A Meerut court sentenced Ravita and her lover Amardeep to death for murdering her husband, Amit Kashyap, and staging the death as a snakebite by placing a live snake beside his body. The post-mortem confirmed Amit died of strangulation, not snakebite. The court cited the conspiracy, brutality, and intent to mislead investigators in its verdict. The accused appeared via video conference and expressed acceptance of the sentence. This case follows a recent similar death penalty verdict in Meerut.
