Madhya Pradesh: The Madhya Pradesh High Court has recently changed the punishment of Lalla Yadav, who was earlier sentenced to life imprisonment for raping a mentally underdeveloped minor. His sentence has now been reduced to 20 years of rigorous imprisonment. A division bench consisting of Justice Vivek Agarwal and Justice Devnarayan Mishra from the Jabalpur bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court issued the judgment. The court considered some mitigating factors, including the fact that the accused is married and has four children to support.
Madhya Pradesh: The Pataudi family’s historic properties, valued at Rs 15,000 crore and associated with Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan, are now closer to being taken under government control.
