UK Citizen Sentenced to Life Imprisonment for 2022 Double Murder in Ludhiana

A Ludhiana court sentenced UK citizen Charanjit Singh to life imprisonment without remission for the 2022 double murder of his sister's elderly in-laws, Sukhdev Singh (68) and Gurmeet Kaur (65). Charanjit traveled from London, spending months planning the killings, motivated by alleged harassment of his sister by the couple. The murders occurred on May 4, 2022, during which Sukhdev was on a phone call with his daughter. The court also imposed additional sentences under the Arms Act, rejecting the death penalty plea.
