THANE: A 27-year-old man, accused of murdering his wife, has been acquitted by a court here.
Additional sessions judge A S Waghwase acquitted Siddesh Chandrakant Dalvi last evening, noting in his order that the prosecution had failed to prove the case.
Dalvi's wife Sushmita was found hanging at the couple's house here on August 29, 2011. According to prosecution, Siddesh told police that she had committed suicide and that he took down the body before the police arrived.
But there was blood on her face and scratches on the neck. Post-mortem report said that death was due to strangulation.
According to the police, Sushmita was in love with someone else but could not marry him. Siddesh, who had married her a year ago, suspected her character, which led to the murder.
But the court did not believe the police's version due to lack of evidence.
