Toronto: An Indian-origin man in Canadas' Alberta province has been sentenced to life in prison for dragging his wife from a moving vehicle and strangling her to death in 2013, media reports said Saturday.

A Calgary court was told the crime occurred when Gagandeep Sidhu, 34, and his wife Monisha Sidhu, 26, got into an argument while on their way to the Peter Lougheed Centre March 29, 2013 for him to see a doctor, Calgary Herald reported.
