Death penalty for Indian man who burnt alive wife over skin colour

An Indian man receives the death penalty for burning his wife alive due to her skin color, in a case that has highlighted the country's issue with colorism. The judge deemed the crime as "rarest of the rare" and a "crime against humanity." The victim had reported her husband for body shaming her over her dark skin and later setting her on fire with a liquid he claimed was a skin lightening medicine. The case sheds light on India's societal preference for fair skin and discrimination against individuals with darker skin.
