Yesterday, On 24th May, a businessman from Uttar Pradesh sentenced to life imprisonment for the brutal assault on his pregnant wife. The incident, which took place last year, revealed a chilling narrative of domestic violence that culminated in an act of extreme cruelty. The victim, who was in the late stages of her pregnancy, suffered severe injuries that not only endangered her life but also threatened the life of her unborn child.
Justice Jyotsana Rai, a civil court judge in Badayun, was found deceased at her residence in a suspected suicide. She had transferred from Mau a year ago. Her assistants raised the alarm when she didn’t respond to their calls. Colleagues and forensic experts gathered at the scene, as the motive remains unclear. Suicidal support helplines were shared.
