Kerala man murders daughter-in-law, commits suicide

Kochi, March 21 A 67-year-old man at Paravoor near Kerala's Kochi city on Thursday killed his daughter-in-law before committing suicide by hanging.

The reason for the gruesome crime committed by Sebastian is said to be a running feud that he had with Shanu, 31, the wife of his son Sinoj.

According to the locals, Sebastian and Shanu were at home after Sinoj had gone to work and his twin kids had gone to the nearby school.

Sebastian is believed to have slashed Shanu’s neck and the neighbours were shocked to see her running out of her home with blood oozing from her neck and then collapsing. Seeing this, Sebastian ran into his room and locked the door. Soon the locals got together and broke open the door only to find him hanging dead.

Shanu and Sebastian were taken to the hospital where both were declared dead.
