Supreme Court to hear appeals against acquittal in Nithari killings in March

Hindustan Times  

The Supreme Court will hear the appeals challenging the acquittal of Surendra Koli in the Nithari killings on March 25. The bench, also comprising justice Augustine George Masih, directed the top court’s registry to provide the digitised trial court records on the scheduled date of hearing as Koli’s lawyers sought to rely on the same to highlight procedural delays in the investigation of the case. The appeals were directed against the October 2023 Allahabad high court order passed in separate cases related to the killings at Nithari village near Noida, where a dozen minor girls were murdered between 2005 and 2007. The HC order had reversed the judgment of the trial court convicting Koli in 13 cases along with his employer Moninder Singh Pandher in two cases. Appearing for Koli, advocate Payoshi Roy pointed out that trial court records in all 13 cases have not been summoned by the top court.
