02:44 The investigation of the High Court has raised questions on the way he was hanged.
02:53 You will see the rest.
02:55 We have not read it completely yet.
02:58 For many, the name Nithari itself became synonymous to abject horror.
03:02 The horrific crimes committed between 2005 and 2006 were centered around Pandey's home labelled the 'House of Horrors'.
03:10 Kohli, working as a helper at the house, was accused of luring children inside where they were raped and murdered.
03:17 The police revealed that the bodies were dismembered and body parts were discarded in drains to obliterate evidence.
03:23 The investigation began when body parts of a missing child were discovered near Pandey's residence, leading to the identification of more victims.
03:32 The Central Bureau of Investigation took over the case in 2007, filing 19 cases against Pandey and Kohli.
03:39 The shocking revelations of murder, mutilation and even cannibalism captivated the nation for weeks.
03:45 Surendra Kohli had earlier confessed to raping and murdering several children as well as engaging in cannibalistic acts.
03:52 The recent acquittal has reignited debates around the investigation's adequacy and raised concerns about justice in such heinous cases.
