Nithari murder case: On Monday, the Allahabad High Court acquitted the prime accused in Noida’s Nithari killings, Surinder Koli, in 12 cases in which he was handed the death penalty by a trial court after 17 years.

Apart from Koli, Moninder Singh Pandher, the co-accused in the case has been acquitted in two cases.

The serial killings took place at Moninder Singh Pandher’s home in Uttar Pradesh’s Noida between 2005 and 2006.

Surinder Koli worked as a help at Pandher’s home.

In this horrific case, Surinder Koli was found guilty of rape and murder of several children at his employer’s house.

This bone-chilling incident came to light after the neighbours found body parts of a missing child in a drain near Pandher’s home.

The investigation then led the police to a series of gruesome murders of several more children.
