A 22-year-old Indian-origin man has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for fatally shooting his father. Vishal Shah of New Jersey was sentenced last week in New Brunswick by Superior Court Judge Colleen Flynn for aggravated manslaughter in the death of his 53-year old father Pradipkumar Shah, Middlesex County Prosecutor Andrew Carey said in a statement. The 25-year term in a New Jersey state prison is subject to the 'No Early Release Act', which means Shah will have to serve 85 per cent of the term before he can be released on parole. Shah had pleaded guilty in March 2018 to one count of aggravated manslaughter. Pradipkumar Shah later died in a local hospital.
