Male feminists of the world, it's time to party!
A woman murdered a man for calling her a name and got only 10 years for it.A woman who killed her husband has been freed of murder charges by the Supreme Court on the grounds that the husband had called her a prostitute, and that this amounted to “sudden and grave provocation” which led to his killing in a fit of rage.
A bench of justices MM Shantanagoudar and Dinesh Maheshwari said that a husband calling his wife a prostitute falls under the exception clause of Section 300 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) that accounts for murder.
Due to the nature of the provocation, the court ruled that the wife should be punishable for culpable homicide not amounting to murder, and not murder. It sentenced the woman and another co-accused to 10 years in jail. The minimum punishment for murder is life imprisonment.
“The deceased provoked the accused by uttering the word ‘prostitute’. In our society, no lady would like to hear such a word from her husband. Most importantly, she would not be ready to hear such a word against her daughters. The incident is a result of a sudden and grave provocation by the deceased,” the court held.
