Indian Supreme Court rejects Swami Shraddhanand's review petition for life sentence in 1991 wife's murder case.

The Indian Supreme Court has denied a review petition from Swami Shraddhanand, 84, who is serving a life sentence for the 1991 murder of his wife, Shakereh Khaleeli. The court upheld a previous ruling mandating life imprisonment without the possibility of remission. Shraddhanand's defense argued that this ruling violated constitutional rights, but the court maintained its stance, allowing him to seek presidential clemency instead.
