The convicts were Bilal, Imran and Salman.
Additional sessions judge Manu Kalia sentenced them to death for killing Aliba (7), Asma (9) and Abdul Rehman (8) in the Faislabad area of Bulandshahr, government counsel Vijay Kumar Sharma said.
The court also imposed a fine of Rs 1.72 lakh on each of the convicts.
