A 31-year-old man from Barrackpore has been sentenced to a little over 18 years in prison after admitting that he murdered a 75-year-old man from Penal during a home invasion in 2017.
Raywadeo Rajeev Ranoo, of Cunjal South Trace, Barrackpore, received the sentence yesterday after pleading guilty to felony murder before Justice Mauriceia Joseph.
Under the felony murder rule, the mandatory death penalty is waived in circumstances where death occurs during the commission of a lesser criminal offence, which in most cases is robbery.
