The Fast Track Court-I on Saturday sentenced two persons to life imprisonment in connection with a youth’s murder.

Judge Amar Narayan found Kallesh alias Kallegowda and Srinivas alias Seena guilty of the offence and slapped a fine of Rs 25,000 each on them.

They, along with six others, had stabbed Alosh Kumar to death on 80 Feet Road in Nagarbhavi on September 30, 2009.
