A Faridabad court sentenced two men, Prahlad and Mukesh, to life imprisonment for the 2023 gang-rape and murder of a woman in the Mujesar police station area. The verdict followed a nearly three-year trial and included fines of Rs 2.61 lakh each and additional three-year terms for destroying evidence and house trespass. The case was designated a 'marked crime' and investigated by the Crime Branch, which arrested the accused based on evidence and testimonies from 25 prosecution witnesses.
