Ex-AAP Councillor Tahir Hussain Sentenced to Life for IB Officer's Murder

A Delhi sessions court sentenced former AAP councillor Tahir Hussain and four others to life imprisonment for the 2020 murder of Intelligence Bureau staffer Ankit Sharma.

The court convicted the five individuals for the brutal killing during the Delhi riots, citing the 'savagery' of the crime as a key factor in the sentencing.

This verdict concludes a high-profile legal battle, with the court ordering the convicts to serve their full life terms for their roles in the targeted violence.
