A Delhi Court on Tuesday acquitted Sirsa MLA and Haryana Lokhit Party (HLP) chief Gopal Kanda in the 2012 abetment to suicide case of Geetika Sharma, a 23-year-old former air hostess in his MDLR.
In 2009, he helped Cong form govt in Haryana; last time, while he was still being tried in the Geetika Sharma case, BJP turned to him for the same. With acquittal, Kanda's rehabilitation is complete.
At the time of her death in August 2012 in Delhi, air hostess Geetika Sharma was employed with the Kanda-owned MDLR Airlines. In her suicide note, she named Kanda for alleged ‘mental harassment’.
