The Gurgaon district court on Saturday awarded life imprisonment to a man held guilty of murdering his wife and step daughter and burying them in a plot in Manesar to evade detection. According to the case details, Asha Ram, a resident of Charki Dadri in Bhiwani, strangled his wife Sudesh (30) to death on May 15, 2015. Asha Ram was arrested a day later by the police and was booked for murder and disappearance of his wife and step daughter. It was also revealed that the accused had been introduced to his wife Sudesh by a friend identified as Gautam in 2011 and after some time, both got married. Both Asha Ram and Sudesh lived together for around four years, but differences cropped them among two later and it was after a quarrel that Asha Ram strangled his wife to death.
