InsideNoVa reported that the defense rested Monday in the Naresh Bhatt murder trial, with a jury verdict possible as soon as Tuesday evening in Manassas.
If the jury has not reached a verdict, proceedings would resume Thursday due to the Veterans Day holiday. Bhatt is charged with first-degree murder and concealment and defilement of a dead body in the 2024 disappearance of his wife, Mamta Kafle Bhatt. Her body has not been found, and he has testified she died by suicide.
