Bangalore, Oct 6 (ANI): A fast-track court will today pronounce its verdict in the rape and murder case of Pratibha Murthy, an employee of the Hewlett-Packard run business process outsourcing arm in Bangalore, who was allegedly raped and murdered in 2005 by the driver of a vehicle leased by her employer.
The accused driver Shivakumar first confessed to the crime, but later backtracked and denied all the charges against him.
He later went on to say that he was not all connected with the case and didn't even know the BPO employee.
Earlier on September 17, the fast-track court deferred its judgement in the case.
The trial has been in the courts for four and a half years.
The accused driver took Murthy to an isolated place and later slit her throat before dumping the body in a pit near Anjanapura layout on December 13, 2005. (ANI)
