The court framed charges against the accused for murder, conspiracy and molestation.
The trial will begin next month. Keenan, 24, and Reuben, 29, were stabbed after a scuffle near a shop in suburban Andheri on October 20 last year. The duo was attacked, leading to their death, when they tried to protect their female friends from the group of eve-teasers.
