The Delhi High Court is being petitioned to launch perjury proceedings against Vikas Yadav, a convict in the Nitish Katara murder case, following allegations he misled the court about the date of his marriage to gain bail benefits.

Nilam Katara, the victim's mother, argues that Yadav wed in July, not September 5 as claimed in court, and presented false evidence to secure interim bail. She has submitted photographs to support her allegations.

Justice Ravinder Dudeja has requested a response from Yadav, who is serving a 25-year term in the case, and directed Delhi Police to verify Nilam's claims and produce a status report. The court has scheduled the next hearing for December 9.
