MUMBAI: While the trial in the 19-year-old brutal murder of obstetrician Asha Goel (62) has been stalled, her daughter informed the court on Friday that the family had applied to the state government for appointment of special public prosecutor Ujwal Nikam in the case but till today no prosecutor had been appointed. On June 6, the earlier special public prosecutor had told the court that he had resigned from the case as the victim’s family had approached the state and police chief for a new prosecutor.
Nikam is currently part of several high-profile trials in sessions court.
