Additional District and Sessions Judge Rakesh Kumar Singh I pronounced the verdict on Wednesday and imposed a fine of Rs 75,000 on each.
District government lawyer Arvind Rajput said the court convicted Chandrashekhar, his wife Janaki alias Janakalli and their associates Raju Verma, Arjun Singh, Dinesh Gautam and Jeetendra in the case.
The incident came to light on February 10, 2014, when Manoj Verma, a resident of Dulhadepur under Daryabad police station, lodged a complaint that he reached the house of his uncle Shivbaran Verma in Mathuranagar village at around 1.30 pm and found the door open.
He said that the bodies of Shivbaran Verma, his wife Rani, his daughter Gudiya Devi and son Nirmal were found lying inside the house.
Rani and Nirmal’s hands were tied with ropes; All four had plastic noose around their necks and foul smell was coming from the house, due to which murder is suspected.
The police registered a case at Daryabad police station and the then investigating officer Inspector Indresh Kumar conducted the investigation.
The investigation revealed that Chandrashekhar and his wife Janaki alias Jankali allegedly conspired to eliminate Shivbaran Verma and his family to grab their property and hired Raju Verma, Arjun Singh, Dinesh Gautam and Jitendra to carry out the murders.
The police completed the investigation and filed the charge sheet in the court. The prosecution presented important witnesses and after hearing arguments from both sides, the court found all six accused guilty and sentenced them to life imprisonment along with a fine of ₹75,000, the lawyer said.
