The Supreme Court has awarded life sentence to three persons in an honour killing case, in which six members of a family were gunned down. The Apex court also said the accused deserved a capital punishment. Six members of Gulzari's family–his wife Ramwati, brother Baburam and the couple's three sons were shot dead by Krishna and the other two in Uttar Pradesh's Farukhabad district. The incident was a sequel to Krishna's daughter Sontara eloping with Amar Singh, son of Jhabulal. The trio committed the murder of Gulzari's family as they suspected that Ramwati helped them elope.
