Bharati's testimony was crucial
As the court convicted Vikas and Vishal Yadav for the murder of Nitish Katara, the role of Bharti Yadav, the girl Nitish loved, figured prominently in the 1,100-page verdict.
While at one point the court found Bharti to have done "injustice to the soul of Nitish", it also acknowledged she was under immense pressure from her family to save her brother and cousin Vikas and Vishal.
"Her plight is understandable as on the one hand it was her past who was no more alive and on the other hand there were her brothers who were behind bars. She must have been under tremendous pressure from the family to save her brothers by any means," observed Additional Session Judge Ravinder Kaur.
The court also said Bharti has tried to give a very balanced statement before the court by denying her intimate relationship with Nitish but also admitting to exchanging letters and cards.
The photographs, letters and greetings exchanged between Nitish and Bharti proved their intimacy beyond any doubt. The prosecution had produced 79 such documents that were admitted by Bharti in the court during her deposition.
