Man gets death for killing wife
A Barisal court yesterday sentenced a man to death for killing his wife over dowry. The convict -- Yousuf Sikder, 32, son of Harun Shikder from Induria village of Hijla upazila -- was present when Judge Abu Shamim Azad delivered the verdict.
Court sources said Yousuf had been torturing his wife Kulsum over dowry since he married her in 2014. On February 12, 2014, Kulsum's father Faruk Sikder was told that his daughter had poisoned herself. Later, he sued six persons including Yousuf.
