NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court of India ruled a life sentence given to a man in a murder case. The court ruled that there was no solid proof that he committed the crime. The case was about an alleged dispute over unpaid or delayed wages, but the judges stated that such a small issue was not a strong enough reason to commit a murder.
