WATCH TILL END! People are celebrating and distributing sweets after learning that Muskaan Rastogi and her lover, Sahil, have been sentenced to death. And understandably, it is a moment that many consider worth celebrating. But will Muskaan actually be hanged? Let’s look at what history tells us. In Maharashtra, two women, Renuka Shinde and Seema Gavit, kidnapped and murdered around 13 children during the 1990s. They were sentenced to death, but in 2022, the Bombay High Court commuted their death sentences to life imprisonment. In Karnataka, a woman named KD Kempamma committed several murders between 1999 and 2007, targeting women and stealing their jewellery. She was sentenced to death in two separate cases in 2010 and 2012. However, the Karnataka High Court later commuted her death sentences to life imprisonment. In Andhra Pradesh, a woman named Ediga Anamma murdered a mother and her child in 1971. Both the trial court and the High Court sentenced her to death, but the Supreme Court later commuted her death sentence to life imprisonment. Then there is Shabnam from Uttar Pradesh. In 2008, she murdered seven members of her own family with the help of her lover. She was sentenced to death by the lower courts, and the Supreme Court upheld the death sentence. Her mercy petition was also rejected by the President. However, there has still been no confirmed update regarding her execution. So, what do you think? If Muskaan appeals to the higher courts, is there a possibility that her death sentence could be commuted to life imprisonment? Let us know your views in the comments!

Muskan Rastogi and Sahil Shukla, who were sentenced to death for the murder of Muskan’s husband, Saurabh Rajput, have approached the Allahabad High Court challenging their conviction and the death penalty awarded by a Meerut court. The duo were convicted on September 30, 2026, and sentenced to death on October 14.

In their appeal, Muskan and Sahil have reportedly argued that the prosecution failed to establish the charges beyond reasonable doubt. They have challenged the trial court’s assessment of the circumstantial evidence and raised alleged inconsistencies in witness statements, along with questions concerning the documentation and admissibility of certain evidence.

Rajkumar later discovered that his wife was allegedly involved in a relationship with Yogesh, who reportedly began staying at their house. Tensions escalated after Rajkumar got a DNA test conducted in 2011 to establish whether he was the biological father of their son. The test report reportedly indicated that he was not the child's biological father, triggering further disputes between the couple.

According to media reports, the incident occurred on October 4, when Sameer went to deliver a coffee order to a customer, Rampal Singh, aged 65. Sameer alleged that after waiting for the customer to arrange payment, he was handed a torn ₹10 note. When he politely requested that the note be replaced, an argument allegedly broke out. Sameer claimed that he was subsequently slapped multiple times and humiliated over his financial background by the customer and another man, identified as Rakesh alias Bunty, aged 30. Following the incident, Sameer reportedly recorded videos describing his ordeal and expressing concerns about whether he would receive justice. As per reports, despite repeated complaints by him, police took no action.

A video featuring a Kolkata couple enjoying Durga Puja pandal-hopping with their son has recently gone viral which is winning hearts online. However , several women allegedly posted derogatory comments about the husband’s appearance, baldness and financial status. One social media user described the man as someone who had “failed at life,” while another questioned his looks, hairline, physique and height. Another comment suggested that his wife had settled for a “below-average-looking, bald man,” arguing that she could have had a better life. The remarks triggered a debate across social media, with many users criticising the comments as body-shaming and class-based humiliation. Supporters of the couple questioned why a family’s seemingly happy moment had become an occasion to judge a man’s physical appearance, financial circumstances and perceived success. One user wrote- "This is what feminism has taken away from you!" Several netizens also pointed out what they viewed as a double standard: men are often criticised for judging women by their looks, yet similar scrutiny of men can also be normalised online. Some users expressed the view that such behaviour contradicts the principles of equality and mutual respect associated with feminism. The controversy has reignited a broader discussion about online misandry, unrealistic expectations of men and the tendency to measure a man’s worth through his appearance, wealth or social status. A man’s worth is not determined by his hairline, height, bank balance or conventional attractiveness. And a woman’s choice of partner should not become an excuse to humiliate either of them. Respect and equality must apply to everyone. Body-shaming and personal attacks do not become acceptable simply because the target is a man.

The Rajasthan High Court has upheld a divorce decree granted to a husband, ruling that a prolonged refusal to have physical relations without a valid reason, coupled with threats of suicide, can amount to mental cruelty under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. The case involved a couple who married in 2018. The husband alleged that his wife refused to establish physical relations with him and threatened to consume poison and end her life. According to him, they had not had physical relations since October 25, 2018, and had been living separately. The wife denied the allegations of cruelty and claimed that her husband quarrelled with her over minor issues, pressured her regarding her employment and demanded a share of her salary. She also sought the restoration of their marital relationship through legal proceedings. In February 2024, the Family Court granted the husband a divorce on grounds of cruelty and rejected the wife's petition seeking restitution of conjugal rights. Challenging these decisions, the wife approached the Rajasthan High Court. A division bench of Justice Munnuri Laxman and Justice Yogendra Kumar Purohit examined the evidence and referred to Supreme Court judgments concerning mental cruelty in matrimonial disputes. The High Court held that, in the circumstances of this case, the wife's prolonged refusal to have physical relations without physical incapacity or a valid reason, along with threats of suicide, amounted to mental cruelty under Section 13(1)(ia) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. The court dismissed both appeals filed by the wife, thereby upholding the divorce decree and the rejection of her petition for restitution of conjugal rights. The ruling highlights that mental cruelty can be a ground for divorce for husbands as well as wives. However, such cases are decided on their specific facts and evidence; a refusal of physical intimacy does not automatically amount to cruelty in every marriage. #formenindia

A woman planned her husband's murder with her lover, handed him sleeping pills to mix with her husband's liquor and sought WhatsApp updates as he carried out the killing. She planned everything from the route he should take to avoid CCTV cameras to the sleeping pills he should mix with her husband’s liquor. She also sought regular WhatsApp updates as her lover carried out the killing. The motive, police said, was to eliminate her husband and move to Dehradun with her lover to start a new life together. The woman, identified as Urmila and her alleged lover, Sikandar, have been arrested in connection with the murder of her husband, Pramod, whose body was found near a tubewell in his field on October 18. According to police, Urmila and Sikandar had developed a romantic relationship and would meet secretly at hotels. However, after Urmila’s son learnt about their relationship, Sikandar stopped visiting her house, though the two continued to stay in touch over the phone. On October 18, Urmila called Sikandar to her compound and handed him two sleeping pills, instructing him to mix them with Pramod’s liquor. As Pramod started becoming intoxicated, Sikandar tried to knock him down. However, Pramod resisted, prompting Sikandar to hit him on the head with the liquor bottle repeatedly, police said. Even after the bottle broke, he continued striking Pramod with the broken glass. Sikandar then dragged Pramod’s unconscious body to a sugarcane field about 20-25 steps from the tubewell. After confirming that Pramod had died, he left the spot and went to watch the Ramlila performance. Urmila kept asking Sikandar for updates over WhatsApp, according to investigators. After he confirmed the killing, she told him she would block his number and contact him herself if needed. #formenindia
