A court in Tripura on June 3 sentenced four persons, accused of murder of a bank manager, to life imprisonment. A police officer and son of a wealthy businessman were among those convicted.
The accused persons were held guilty of murdering Bodhisatta Das, bank branch manager, in August 2019. The victim succumbed a few days after he was critically wounded in the attack near Ujjayanta Palace here.
The sensational crime had created an outrage among the people forcing the State government to recommend for the ‘custody trial’ of the accused Sumit Choudhury, Sumit Banik, Amar Sarif and Sukanta Biswas.
