thodupuzha-crime

IDUKKI: The locals at Thodupuzha haven’t yet escaped from the thoughts of the seven-year-old child who was brutally murdered by his mother’s partner.

The child and his fate have been a topic of conversation for everybody, even in the midst of this election season. Afraid of mob reaction, the child’s mom has taken accommodation at a women’s shelter. The younger kid and the grandmother are also staying with the woman. The police have to record a statement of the woman regarding the murder of her child and also on the demise of the first husband. However, in the present situation, the police will find it difficult to do that. She might be subjected to counseling and later presented at court. The locals allege that the officials are trying to give a clean chit to the woman.

Meanwhile, as per received information, the murder accused Arun Anand is not showing any guilt for the committed crime. He has been jailed at Muttom Prison after being charged with murder and POCSO. But he is least bothered with anything happening around him. He is passing his time by eating and sleeping. However, he is bothered by the threat possessed by cellmates. He has requested the court a transfer from Muttom Prison due to safety threat. The court dismissed the request. In a recent development, three advocates offered legal support to Arun Anand.
