Nithari killer Koli to be hanged on September 12

Meerut, September 4
Nithari serial killer Surinder Koli, who has been sentenced to death for the brutal killing of a 14-year-old girl, will be hanged here on September 12, Jail Superintendent SHM Rizvi said tonight.

A warrant was issued on Wednesday by a Ghaziabad court in the name of Koli that he should be hanged to death after the convict exhausted all his legal remedies in this case. Koli, lodged in a jail in Ghaziabad, has been sentenced to death in connection with the killing of Rimpa Halder and in four other cases.

The President rejected the mercy petition on July 27, paving the way for the judicial process to commence for hanging of Koli. — PTI
