A Delhi court is likely to pronounce its verdict in the six-year-old sensational Nitish Katara murder case on Wednesday.

While dismissing prime accused Vikas Yadav's plea seeking to re-examine key witness Ajay Katara and others in the light of a CD revealing alleged nexus between the witness and complainant and mother of the deceased Neelam Katara, Additional Sessions Judge Ravinder Kaur reserved her judgement in the case.

Katara, son of an IAS officer, was allegedly killed by accused Vikas and his cousin Vishal Yadav on the intervening night of February 16-17, 2002.

They had allegedly abducted the victim from a marriage function in Ghaziabad.

According to the prosecution, the accused had killed the victim as they did not approve of his alleged relations with their sister Bharati Yadav.
