105-year-old murder convict walks free as Supreme Court closes 38-year-old case

The Supreme Court has waived the remaining life sentence of 105-year-old murder convict Rasik Chandra Mondal, making its 2024 interim bail order final. Mondal was convicted in 1994 over a 1988 murder. The court said he would not be returned to custody even if his life sentence remained unfinished, considering his advanced age and health ailments.
