Piran Ditta Khan jailed over PC Sharon Beshenivsky murder

The 75-year-old ringleader behind an armed robbery in which a police officer was shot dead almost 20 years ago has been jailed for life for her murder.

Piran Ditta Khan spent nearly two decades evading justice for his part in the killing of PC Sharon Beshenivsky in Bradford on 18 November 2005.

The judge, the Honourable Mr Justice Hilliard, said that PC Beshenivsky’s “courage and commitment to her duty that day cost her her life”.

He told Khan: “The sentence I pass is no measure of the value of the life that has been lost.

“That’s beyond measure and no sentence I pass can put right what you’ve done wrong.”
