In a landmark judgment, a Kerala court has sentenced Greeshma, a 24-year-old woman, to death for the murder of her boyfriend, Sharon Raj. Greeshma was found guilty of poisoning Sharon with a lethal herbicide in October 2022.
The court described the crime as “extremely brutal, gruesome, diabolical, and revolting,” and ruled that it fell under the category of “rarest of rare cases” warranting the maximum punishment. Greeshma’s uncle, Nirmalakumaran Nair, who was found guilty of destroying evidence, was sentenced to three years in prison.
The judgment has sent shockwaves across the state, with many expressing their support for the court’s decision. This is a significant development in the case, which has been closely followed by the public.
