KOZHIKODE: Neighbours of Jolly Joseph, accused in killing six of her relatives in Koodathayi, made some shocking revelations. They said Jolly never talked to them and was someone who didn't even seem to care.


The police yesterday arrested Jolly, the prime suspect, along with two of her partners M S Mathew and P Praji Kumar, a day after the mortal remains of the victims were exhumed from their graves by forensic experts. She allegedly murdered her husband, father-in-law, mother-in-law and three other close relatives over 14 years in order to grab their property and marry another man in the family. Tom Thomas, 66, his wife Annamma, 57, son Roy Thomas, 40, Annamma’s brother Mathew Manchadiyil, 68, and two other relatives, Sily, 41, and her two-year-old daughter Alphine were the six victims.
