Delhi HC likely to pronounce verdict on Nitish Katara case today

New Delhi, Feb 6 (IBNS): The Delhi High Court is expected to pronounce its verdict on the sentence of Uttar Pradesh politician DP Yadav's son Vikas Yadav and two others convicted in the Nitish Katara murder case, reports said.

A special bench of justices Gita Mittal and and JR Midha will deliver the verdict in the 13-year-old case.  The arguments on sentence against the convicts ended on December 8 last year.

Vikas along with his cousin Vishal Yadav and Sukhdev Pehelwan are now serving life term for abducting and killing Katara, sources said.

Katara was a business executive and the son of an IAS officer. The trio had abducted murdered him on the night of February 16-17, 2002 as they opposed Katara’s affair with Bharti, daughter of DP Yadav.
