Allahabad High Court Rules on Two Decades-Old Murder and Attempted Murder Cases
The Allahabad High Court recently ruled on two decades-old criminal cases. In one, it reduced the sentence of a 60-year-old former police constable convicted in a 1985 attempted murder case, citing his advanced age and a 41-year delay in proceedings. In the other, the court dismissed the appeal of an 82-year-old man convicted for his brother's 1984 murder, ordering him to serve the remaining life sentence. The court found no mitigating factors to alter the conviction or sentence despite the appellant's age and prolonged bail period.
