High-profile Indian found guilty
An Indian court Tuesday found a businessman guilty of killing six people by running them over in his car after a trial featuring prominent families, crooked lawyers and alleged witness intimidation.
Sanjeev Nanda, 30, was convicted of homicide for drunkenly steering his BMW into the six men as he returned home with friends from a late-night party in New Delhi in 1999.
Three of the victims were homeless people sleeping on the pavement, while the other three were policemen manning a checkpoint.
Nanda, the grandson of India's former navy chief and the son of an arms dealer, sped away from the incident to go to a friend's house, where blood stains and flesh were removed from the car.
