MOHALI:

The CBI special court of Rakesh Kumar Gupta convicted Sita Ram, 80, then Patti SHO, and constable Raj Pal, 57, then posted at the same police station.

CBI's public prosecutor Anmol Narang said that Sita Ram was convicted under Section 302 (murder), 201 (act of destroying evidence of a crime or giving false information to shield an offender) and 218 (a public servant who intentionally creates an incorrect record or writing) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Rajpal was convicted under Sections 201 and 120-B (criminal conspiracy) of the IPC.

The quantum of sentence will be awarded on March 6.

The court acquitted five accused, including Kashmira Singh Gill, the then DSP who retired as AIG, by giving benefit of doubt.
