The two accused came on a motorcycle and threw acid on the three persons in the car on September 1, 2011. They fled after committing the crime.
All three were injured in the attack. Shivatika, who was critically injured, succumbed to her injuries after 19 days at the PGI, Chandigarh.
A case had been registered at the Balongi police station against the two attackers under Sections 307 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). After Shivatika’s death, the case was converted to Section 302 of the IPC.
The two convicts were taken to jail under tight security after the judgment was delivered.
