UP court gives death penalty to 3 men for killing 24 Dalits in 1981
A Uttar Pradesh court has sentenced three men to death for the 1981 massacre of 24 Dalits in Dehuli. The massacre was allegedly to punish Dalit witnesses against upper-caste criminals. Of the 17 accused, 14 died during the trial, while another is absconding. The remaining three, all in their early 70s, were convicted on Tuesday.
