Death sentence for three

PATNA: A fast track court on Friday awarded death sentence to three persons for killing four dalit supporters of the CPI(ML) in Lahsuna village, under the Masaurhi police station of the district, during the Lok Sabha elections in 2004.

The local court judge Om Prakash, however, acquitted four others for want of evidence.

Death sentences were given to Sujit Singh, Arvind Singh and Manoj Singh.
