#Mumbai man # Atif Popere sentenced to death # Dubai
Mumbai, Dec 31 (IBNS) A former Mumbai resident, settled in Dubai, will be executed by a firing squad after being convicted for murdering his wife, reports said.
The Bombay High Court will  have to decide who would get the custody of their 6-year-old daughter.
 
Atif Popere, had killed Bushra, his 24 -year-old wife in March 2013. He and his accomplice were convicted the same year. After the murder, Popere had fled to India but was forced to come back to UAE and surrender. The motive of the murder is not clear.
 
Popere's plea to commute death sentence to life imprisonment was rejected in October. 
 
 
Popere had met  Nimmy Dhananjayan when she was studying at a college in Mumbai. The two were married in 2008. Later, he moved to Dubai for work and their daughter was born in 2009.
