The relatives of Hema Upadhyay and Haresh Bhambhani have welcomed the conviction of Chintan Upadhyay and the other accused. Immediately after the verdict was pronounced, police personnel took Chintan into their custody on the court’s instructions. As they began escorting him to the lockup, his acquaintances and relatives followed him.
Bhambhani’s younger daughter, Anita, and his two elder brothers, Gope and Ramesh, were present at the hearing. They appeared emotional as they spoke to Special Public Prosecutor Vaibhav Bagade after the judge left the room. Anita was in tears, remembering her father. She told mid-day, “We are relieved and grateful that we had faith in our judicial system. Finally, we have received justice. The court will announce the punishment on October 7, and we hope the accused are severely punished.”
