Journalist Soumya Vishwanathan's Father Dies 2 Weeks After She Gets Justice

MK Vishwanathan, 82, died just a day after what would have been his daughter's 41st birthday.

TV journalist Soumya Vishwanathan's father died on Saturday, two weeks after a Delhi court awarded life term to four men convicted in her decade-old murder case.

MK Vishwanathan, 82, died just a day after what would have been his daughter's 41st birthday.

On the fateful night of September 30, 2008, Mr Vishwanathan stayed up late as Soumya, then a news producer with Headlines Today, was held up at her workplace. His calls went unanswered. Little did they know the journey back home would be her last.
