GHAZIABAD: A special CBI court in Ghaziabad on Wednesday awarded death sentence to Surender Koli, the lone person accused in the second Nithari case. Koli has been held guilty for raping and murdering seven-year-old girl Arti.
Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) special judge A K Singh said Koli was to be hanged till death.
On May 4, the court had convicted 38-year-old Koli of the rape and murder of Arti who had disappeared from her home in September 2006.
Meanwhile, residents of Nithari said the CBI should be held responsible if Mohinder Singh Pandher escapes without punishment. Noida police said extra policemen would be posted near Pandher's D-5 residence at Nithari.
Both Pandher and his domestic Koli were on February 13, 2009, sentenced to death in the Rimpa Haldar case. However, Pandher was acquitted by Allahabad high court on September 11, 2009.
Arti's rape and murder is the second conviction out of the total 19 cases related to the rape and murder of children and a young woman, whose body parts were found in a drain behind Pandher's bungalow in 2006.
