New Delhi, Dec 18 (IANS) Vishal Yadav, who is serving a life sentence for killing Nitish Katara, Friday moved the Delhi High Court seeking interim bail to attend his sister’s marriage.
Vishal in his plea demanded that he may be granted interim bail for two months to attend his sister’s marriage for which the ceremonies begin Dec 26 and will continue till Jan 21 next year.

“I am the eldest son in the family and owns a full responsibility of my sister as my father is no more and grandfather is paralysed so I need to look all arrangements for Sarika’s (sister) marriage,” Vishal stated in his petition.

A division bench comprising Justices Vipin Sanghi and Anil Kumar after considering Vishal’s plea issued notice to Delhi Police and Uttar Pradesh Police and asked them to file their response by Dec 23.

Vishal also stated that he had been on bail earlier too and his conduct was good at that time.

Nitish Katara was abducted and murdered by Vikas and Vishal Yadav for having intimate relations with Vikas Yadav’s sister Bharti.

In June last year, Vikas and Vishal Yadav were sentenced to life imprisonment for killing Nitish Katara. Earlier this year, Vikas was granted 24-hour custody parole to attend his sister Bharti’s marriage.
