Nitish Katara murder case: Supreme Court dismisses Vikas Yadav's plea to review sentence

Firstpost  

The apex court had said that that the courts have the power to impose the fixed term sentence without remission. New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected the plea by Vikas Yadav seeking the recall of the order upholding 25-year jail term for his involvement in Nitish Katara murder case. Upholding 2014 Delhi High Court’s order sentencing Vikas Yadav to undergo 25 years of imprisonment following his conviction for killing Nitish Katara, the top court by its October 3, 2016 order had said: “We reiterate that the imposition of fixed terms sentence is justified.” The apex court had said that that the courts have the power to impose the fixed term sentence without remission. While refusing to interfere with high court order, the top court had, however, in a relief to Vikas Yadav said that five years term under Section 201 of the IPC for the destruction of evidence would run concurrently and not consecutively as was directed by the high court. The top court had also refused to interfere with high court order imposing a fine of Rs 54 lakh on Vikas Yadav.
