UPDATE: Woman Acquitted Due to Lack of Evidence
Sep, 2019
Neha Goyal has been acquitted by a district and sessions court, citing insufficient
evidence.
She was arrested after her infant daughter was found dead with her throat slit on the second floor of a three-story building in Subhash Nagar on August 26, 2016. Investigations revealed the baby had suffered 17 injuries, and her body was discovered inside an air conditioner cabinet.
The case came to light when Neha’s husband, Rakesh Goyal, lodged a police complaint regarding the murder. Authorities arrested Neha 12 days later and claimed to have recovered the knife used in the crime.
However, during the trial, 33 witnesses turned hostile, casting doubt on the prosecution's case. The court also questioned the validity of the alleged recovery of the murder weapon. In her defense, Neha’s lawyers argued that the baby could have been killed by an outsider who had access to the terrace.
The infant was the couple’s second daughter; they already had an eight-year-old daughter at the time of the incident. The family resided in a multi-story building shared with over 30 members of their extended family.
