Accordingly in a disturbing incident that happened in Chiyyaram in Thrissur, a 21 year old young woman Neethu was burnt alive on Thursday. As per reports, the incident took place around 7 am at Neethu's house. Even though people from around her house came running hearing her cries, Neethu had died before they reached. Nidheesh, a native of Vadakkekad, was caught by passers-by before he could flee from the scene and was handed over to the police.
Furthermore according to police sources, Neethu was stabbed before she was set on fire. Reportedly the victim is an engineering student at the Axis Engineering College in Kodakara. Apparently she lived near Ollukavu Bhavathy Temple, at Chiyyaram in Thrissur, with her aunt and grandparent. Reports added her mother had passed away a few years ago and her father had re-married before that.
Moreover eyewitnesses told Manorama that they saw a motorcycle kept outside the house. Accordingly they heard a cry from the victim's house and rushed to the spot. Reportedly Nidheesh entered through the backdoor of the house, where Neethu and her grandmother were alone at the house when the incident took place, and it is however not clear who Nidheesh is and her body was taken to Thrissur Medical College for postmortem.
