A gay bank employee faces life sentence after being found guilty for murdering his wife in order to stop her from exposing his homosexuality.
Wolverhampton Crown Court has heard that Jasvir Ram Ginday, 29, from Walsall, attacked his Indian wife Varkha Rani, 24, just after six months of their marriage at their home with a metal pipe from a vacuum cleaner to strangle her then burnt her body in a garden incinerator; while telling neighbour that he was disposing off the trash.
Ginday was unanimously convicted of murder after jurors heard that he throttled his wife just a month after she arrived in the UK from India.
Ginday knew about his homosexuality since he was 12, and was marrying an innocent Indian girl to mask the truth.
The IT specialist at the Royal Bank of Scotland had initially reported his wife as missing and told that she had packed her bags and left him following a row at their home on September 12, 2013.
Next day, police came to investigate at Victory Road in Walsall, West Mids and discovered her body. It had to be identified using a DNA sample from her father. Ten people at the house were arrested. Only Ginday was charged.
Then the accused, who continually denied murdering his wife, finally admitted the guilty plea to man slaughter, while claiming that he had accidentally killed Rani in panic after she threatened to reveal his being gay to his friends and family.
But the prosecution had presented evidence that his homosexuality was an open secret. Friends and some family members testified they knew he was gay.
After three weeks of trial, a jury of seven women and five men took around 17 hours to find Ginday guilty of murder on Friday.
The court has ruled that he will have to spend a minimum term of 21 years in jail before he can be considered for parole.
