The court has handed life sentences to the accused in the murder case of Ankit Sharma, a verdict that Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal welcomed as a decisive step against criminality. In a statement, Kejriwal praised the judiciary for delivering justice and called the sentencing a clear message that law and order will be upheld.
