Ever since 2003, when she was brutally murdered, allegedly by her siblings and their accomplices over a multi-crore property, the family of Canadian national Dr Asha Goel, has been waiting for justice. Goel's son Sanjay, who is the president of Cruise Connections, a tourism company in Canada, said he has visited India 88 times to fight for justice, but the trial is yet to start, despite the Supreme Court's clear directive to the Sessions Court for the same. Now Sanjay and his father have flown down to Mumbai again as the fate of the trial against the main accused in the case will be decided on January 13 at the Sessions court.
"My mum was brutally murdered, there were 21 points of injuries, vegetable paring knives, a pillow was used. In some ways she was blinded, her jaw was broken... It was a horrible, horrible assault. Her struggle for her life could have lasted probably for 10 minutes or so. The forensic findings said she was beaten to death," Sanjay told mid-day of the murder on August 13 then.
