A court in Delhi, India, sentenced a 59-year-old man to death and his two young sons to life imprisonment in a triple murder case at Saket in South Delhi in 1998.
Awarding the sentence, the Additional Sessions Judge, Lal Singh, said that the case came under the category of 'rarest of rare case', and, therefore, the main accused, Ramesh Chand Verma, deserved the severest punishment. Mr. Singh found the three -- Verma and his sons Ajay Kumar and Vijay Kumar -- guilty of killing Pushparaj, Narinder and Namita.
It was found that Pushparaj was killed for his alleged illicit relations with Verma's daughter, and that the two others were killed as they had been witnesses to the crime.
