Court convicts Jigisha's killer in another murder case

August 26, 2016 20:31

A death row convict in the Jigisha Ghosh murder case was today held guilty in another case of killing a cab driver by a Delhi court.

Additional Sessions Judge Sandeep Yadav convicted Ravi Kapoor, who was earlier this week awarded death sentence for killing 28-year-old IT executive Jigisha, and another accused, Ajay Kumar, of kidnapping and killing cab driver Mohd Nadeem in January 2009.

The court also held two other accused -- Aarif and Ajay Sethi -- guilty of the offence under section 413 (habitually dealing in stolen property) of the IPC.

It asked the Delhi government to apprise it about the conduct and scope of rehabilitation of the four convicts and sought a pre-sentence report within four weeks to decide on their quantum of punishment.

The court will hear arguments on sentence on October 1.
