Murder Case

The scandal surrounding Modi's murder attracted worldwide attention. Seven were named in a chargesheet following a CBI probe, including Modi's wife Amita and her future husband, Indian politician Sanjay Singh, but the case against Amita Modi and Sanjay Sing - for conspiracy - was dropped, and Akhilesh Singh and Jitendra Singh were separately exonerated. Two of the other accused - Amar Bahadur Sing and Balai Singh - died before their involvement could be judged. Bhagwati Singh was found guilty of murder and possessing illegal arms, fined and sentenced to life imprisonment.
