Nithari kand is remembered as a gruesome crime that involved rape and brutal killings.

There were speculations that Koli was a serial killer because of which he killed so many people britally.?
According to media reports, the servant would lure kids into the residence, where he allegedly used to rape and murder them.
Last year, the Allahabad High Court acquitted Surinder Koli in over 10 cases leading to the annulment of his death sentence. The acquittal was the result of lack of evidence.
2. Serial murders by Moninder Singh Pandher
Moninder Singh Padher, who was the owner of the house where all the killings happened, was the prime suspect in the case. Police investigated the speculations that said the owner used to make the servant do all the killings and that the servant did all of it only for money and on the orders of his boss Moninder.?
Pandher was too acquitted of all charges against him. He was too acquitted by the Allahabad High Court due to a lack of convincing evidence other than the confessions.
3.?Organ Trafficking?
There were accusations that Moninder used to run an organ trafficking business, and the killings of children were part of his business. Police investigated this angle, but nothing substantial was found, which is in the public domain.?
