Vikrant Thakur appeared in the court for the second time on January 14. He was accused of murdering his wife Supriya Thakur in December. In the court, after consulting his lawyer, he said, ‘I accept manslaughter, but not murder.’

Fundraiser started for Supriya’s son
Supriya’s friends and community members have started a fundraiser to help her son. It is written on the GoFundMe page that Supriya was a dedicated mother and worked very hard for her son’s secure future. She often worked long hours and dreamed of becoming a registered nurse. Due to Supriya’s sudden death, his son’s world has changed completely and he is now alone without his mother.
