Vismaya case: Husband Kiran Kumar moves HC challenging conviction, punishment.

Kochi: A former assistant motor vehicle inspector, who was convicted and sentenced to 10 years in jail by a Sessions Court for driving his wife Vismaya to suicide by perpetrating dowry-related cruelties on her, on Thursday moved the Kerala High Court against conviction and punishment.

His appeal, which came up for hearing before Justice Kauser Edappagath, was adjourned by the High Court which said it would hear arguments over the matter after a month.

The convict S Kiran Kumar, in his appeal, has claimed that he was convicted and punished without there being sufficient evidence to prove his guilt.
