Dr. Asha Goel was a Canadian-citizen doctor who was brutally murdered in Mumbai, India, in August 2003 while visiting family. She was 62 and a respected obstetrician and gynaecologist who had practised medicine for decades in Canada. Goel was found dead in her brother’s Malabar Hill flat with multiple stab wounds and severe injuries, and police concluded the killing was linked to a family property dispute. Several people were arrested over the years in connection with the case, and Indian authorities alleged a conspiracy involving her relatives, but the trial dragged on for years amid legal delays and some accused being discharged or dying before facing justice. The case has remained unresolved in several respects, and Goel’s family has repeatedly called for stronger cooperation between Indian and Canadian authorities to see the matter properly concluded.
