India Blooms News Service
Ghaziabad, May 10 (IBNS) Reacting to Surinder Koli of the Noida serial killings filing mercy petition, victim Rimpa Haldar’s mother Dolly on Tuesday said he should not be given another chance to live.
“Koli does not deserve mercy…he should be hanged immediately. He should not get another chance to live,” Dolly told reporters here.
“I was relieved after his death warrant was signed….thought justice has been done. Now that he has filed a mercy petition, I am worried again,” she said.
With a special court announcing the death of his hanging, Koli has filed a mercy petition before President Pratibha Patil.
CBI Judge Shyam Lal had issued Koli’s death warrant saying his sentence will be executed between May 24-31 at 4 am, CBI advocate Jai Prakash Sharma confirmed to the media on Monday.
Following that order, Koli moved a mercy petition on May 7. The Ghaziabad jail authorities sent the plea to Uttar Pradesh government, who will forward it to Patil.
The court has fixed May 13 to hear further order in the case.
The Supreme Court on Feb 15 upheld death sentence of Surinder Koli of the Noida serial killings.
Kohli was handed the death sentence by the Allahabad High Court in the murder case of 14-year-old Rimpa Haldar.
Confirming the High Court verdict, the apex court bench of Justice Markandey Katju and Justice Gyan Sudha Misra described the killing as ‘horrifying and barbaric’.
The court noted that Koli, after alluring the female victims to his employer Moninder Singh Pandher's house in Noida, strangulated them and tried to have sex with their bodies. Thereafter, he cut their bodies into pieces, cooked some of them and ate them.
The hearing on the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) appeal against acquittal of Moninder Singh Pandher was kept pending by the Supreme Court, stating that the verdict may affect other pending cases against Pandher.
The Noida serial murders or Nithari killings occurred in the house of businessman Moninder Singh Pandher in Nithari, in 2005 and 2006.
Pandher's servant Surender Koli has been convicted of four murders and sentenced to death earlier by lower courts.
At least 18 children were killed and many sexually assaulted in the grisly serial crime where even cannibalism was suspected.
