Supreme Court overturns High Court’s decision
Let us tell you that on Monday, Supreme Court has acquitted Gambhir Singh who was sentenced to death in a mass murder case 13 years ago. On the morning of May 9, 2012, the village Turkiya in Achhnera was terrified due to the mass murder. The blood-soaked bodies of six family members were lying in two rooms of the house.
The High Court had ordered death penalty
It was alleged that the middle son of the house, Gambhir Singh, killed his elder brother Satyabhan, his wife and four children with an axe. The Sessions Court awarded death penalty to Gambhir for the incident, which was upheld by the High Court.
After 13 years, Supreme Court released the culprit
After 13 years, Supreme Court cancelled the sentence and acquitted Gambhir and ordered his immediate release from jail. On Sunday, the entire village was left speechless after getting information about the Supreme Court’s decision. The murder and Gambhir Singh were the topic of discussion on every street and corner.
Satyabhan’s younger brother Gambhir, his minor friend and sister Gayatri were sent to jail on the same day of the incident, just a few hours after the murder of farmer Satyabhan, his wife Pushpa, six-year-old daughter Aarti, three-year-old Machhla, two-year-old Gudiya and four-year-old son Kanhaiya in Turkiya village of Achhnera area on May 9, 2012.
