A court in Anantnag, Kashmir, sentenced Showkat Ahmad Bhat to life imprisonment for the 2019 murder of gas tanker driver Naseeb Singh. The court found that Bhat, driving a truck, developed a grudge after a collision with the tanker, then forced it to stop, dragged the driver out, and beat him with an iron rod, causing fatal injuries. The conviction was based on eyewitness testimony, medical evidence, and forensic reports. The court declined the death penalty, citing Bhat's status as a first-time offender and his family dependents, and imposed a fine of Rs 50,000, recommending additional compensation of Rs 5 lakh to the victim's family.
