Palakkad: The sentencing of Chenthamara, who was convicted in the sensational Nenmara double murder case, will be pronounced today by the Additional District and Sessions Court in Palakkad.
The children of the victims, Sudhakaran and Sajitha, have demanded the death penalty for Chenthamara, stating that they fear for their safety if he is released. They also expressed gratitude to the government and the police for supporting them throughout the legal proceedings.
According to the prosecution, Chenthamara murdered Sajitha on August 31, 2019, after wrongly believing that she was responsible for his wife leaving him.
After being arrested and later released on bail, Chenthamara allegedly attacked again on January 27, 2025, fatally hacking Sajitha’s husband, Sudhakaran, and his mother, Lakshmi, in front of their house.
The court had found Chenthamara guilty in the case, and the sentence is scheduled to be announced today.
