Indian politician's son guilty of model murder

Jessica Lall, 34, was tending the bar at an exclusive party in New Delhi when she was shot dead by Manu Sharma, the son of a Congress party politician, apparently for refusing to serve him a drink after the bar had closed.

Sharma had been acquitted in February, raising widespread protests from the public and media who saw the initial verdict as evidence the rich and powerful are beyond the reach of justice. The Delhi High Court ordered a retrial after the outcry.
