Special public prosecutor, Bibhas Chatterjee, had prayed for capital punishment, claiming that it was a premeditated murder.

The court, however, sentenced her to life imprisonment, since she has a three-year-old child, and also because there was no eyewitness, with the conviction also based on circumstantial evidence.

Anindita said she was being framed up, vowing to fight till the “last drop of blood”, as she was being taken to the prison van from the courtroom.

During the trial, the prosecution had claimed that on the night of November 24 and 25, 2018, Anindita strangulated her husband Dey, also a lawyer, with the wire of a mobile phone charger in their New Town flat, near Kolkata.
