Supreme Court Sentences Ex-MLA Munna Shukla, Mantu Tiwari to Life in 1998 Murder of Bihar Minister
Oct 3, 2024, 05:39 AM
The Supreme Court has sentenced two individuals, including former MLA Munna Shukla, to life imprisonment for the 1998 murder of former Bihar minister Brij Bihari Prasad, upholding the trial court's conviction. The court partially set aside the Patna High Court's order that had acquitted the accused, reaffirming the life sentences for Shukla and Mantu Tiwari. However, the Supreme Court gave the benefit of the doubt to former MP Surajbhan Singh and five others, upholding their acquittal. The convicts have been ordered to surrender within 15 days.
