Junior artistes who killed Actress Meenakshi Thapa convicted

Mumbai, May 9: The Mumbai Sessions Court on Wednesday held guilty two Bollywood junior artistes for the horrific murder of an aspiring actress from Dehradun, Meenakshi Thapa, in 2012.

Special Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam said that after examining all the evidence and witnesses, the court found them guilty for the gruesome killing of the 27-year-old actress in Allahabad.

The court is likely to pronounce the quantum of sentence on Thursday.

According to the prosecution, Amit Kumar Jaiswal, 36, and his girlfriend, Preeti Surin, lured the victim to Allahabad on the pretext of an attracting modeling-cum-acting assignment.

After reaching Allahabad, they held Meenakshi hostage and made a ransom demand of Rs 1.50 million from her mother. As Thapa's family failed to give the amount they killed Meenakshi and chopped her body and threw parts in different locations.
