**Mumbai Man Sentenced to Life Imprisonment for Wife’s Murder**
A sessions court in Mumbai has sentenced a 40-year-old man, Nasim Ansari, to life imprisonment for killing his wife in February 2020, just a day after his release from prison in a theft case.
**Quarrel Turns Fatal**
According to the prosecution, the incident took place on February 27, 2020, at their hut in Nagpada. Nasim Ansari attacked his wife, Yasminbano, following a quarrel. He accused her of not visiting him during his imprisonment and harbored suspicions about her fidelity.
**Neighbour Witnessed the Murder**
Earlier in the day, neighbours had intervened to stop Ansari from assaulting his wife. However, he returned at night and brutally smashed her head with a heavy stone. A neighbour witnessed the attack and promptly reported it to the police, which led to Ansari’s arrest.
**Prosecution Evidence Stood Strong**
Prosecutor Ramesh Siroya examined 11 witnesses during the trial, including the neighbour who witnessed the assault. The court found the witnesses’ testimonies to be ‘natural,’ with no apparent motive for false deposition, thereby giving their accounts high evidentiary value.
**Court’s Observations**
While awarding life imprisonment, the court condemned the underlying mindset behind the crime. It stated:
*“The incident is an example of dirty mentality and male dominance. Women are still treated like a commodity and not a human being. The accused killed his wife only because of an unfounded suspicion on her fidelity. No doubt, he deserves a deterrent sentence.”*
