What was claimed

India sentenced 13 Bangladeshis to life imprisonment for killing Hargobinda Das and his son Chandan Das in Murshidabad.

Shottify has reviewed reports from 10 prominent Indian news outlets covering the verdict (22 December, 2025).

Although the reports confirm that the convicted 13 individuals received life sentences, none of the outlets identifies them as Bangladeshis.
