Tripura HC upholds life term for man convicted of wife's murder on circumstantial evidence

The Tripura High Court has upheld a life sentence imposed on a man found guilty of murdering his wife. No eyewitness was present, so the conviction rested on other proof. The court weighed medical reports and testimony describing a history of abuse and demands for money. Circumstances surrounding the incident, together with a neighbour's corroborating account, led the bench to conclude guilt was established beyond reasonable doubt.
