In its order, the court also imposed a fine of Rs 10,000 or a six-month jail term if the amount was not paid. The Chief Judicial Magistrate's Court at Barasat in North 24 Parganas pronounced the judgment.

While being taken out of the courtroom to the prison van, Anindita shouted: "I have been framed in the case. I will continue to fight for justice till the last drop of my blood."

New Town police station had arrested Calcutta High Court lawyer Rajat Kumar Dey's wife Anindita Dey, on the suspicion of murdering her husband. She had divulged misleading statements during the course of interrogation on the basis of which she had been booked.
