Manu Sharma, Jessica Lal was a model in New Delhi, who was working as a celebrity barmaid at a crowded socialite party when she was shot dead on April 29, 1999 by Manu Sharma, the son of Vinod Sharma, a wealthy Congress politician in Haryana, as the murderer. Today on April 19, 2010 The Supreme Court has upheld the life sentence given to Manu Sharma for the murder of model Jessica Lall.
Lall was murdered 11 years ago at a Delhi restaurant by Sharma, "It has given us a lot of satisfaction," said Sabrina Lall, Jessica's sister, who has been leading the campaign for justice for her sister's death.
A trial court in Delhi first acquitted Sharma in 2006. The Delhi High Court then reversed that decision.
Sharma appealed to the Supreme Court against the high court's verdict that found him guilty.
