KOZHIKODE: The police have removed the mystery in the murder of 10th class student Nasreena in Moozhikkal. The police have found that the accused Adnan threw the mobile phones in the well after killing Nasreena. The police have concluded that the reason for the murder was anger over finding the theft and resentment over being thrown out of the house.

Adnan entered Nasreena's house at around 7:30 pm on April 13. He entered the house when the inmates of the house were engaged in Vishu celebrations. Before that, he turned off the CCTV camera in the kitchen. It is believed that Adnan entered the girl's room and committed the murder at around 8 pm.

He killed Nasreena by strangling her with a shawl. Hearing the noise, the family rushed to the spot. After locking Adnan in a room, they took Nasreena, who was struggling to breathe, to the hospital. However, she died before reaching there.

When the family returned from the hospital and tried to open the room where Adnan had been locked, it was bolted from inside. When they pushed open the door and entered, they found Adnan dead. Cellophane tape was twined on his face and mouth.
