Now 59, Siddhu has been exonerated due to lack of concrete evidence
A local court in Odisha’s Mayurbhanj district exonerated a person from a murder case after he underwent close to 19 years of imprisonment.
Habil Siddhu was around 40 when he was convicted and imprisoned in murder of three persons, including a child in 2003. Now 59, Siddhu has been exonerated due to lack of concrete evidence to prove his culpability.
Siddhu hails from Balarampur village under the Jashipur police station. However, he used to live in his father-in-law’s village at Kudumutu.
