Vaikom ∙ Saju’s frustration towards her husband Kannur Patiyur Chelapal due to killing Malaysian nurse Anju and her 2 sons in Britain is also said to be the reason for sudden irritation. After Anju got a job as a nurse in a Kettering hospital, Saju went to Britain on a dependent visa. Later the children were also taken.
Under UK law, children should not be left home alone at work. One parent should stay at home to take care of the children. With this, Saju was convinced that he wouldn’t be able to get a job anytime soon. And there were no Malayali friends.
The information the Malayalees received from there is that he committed the murder while drunk. Anju and her sons Jiva and Jhanvi were found murdered on the night of the 15th. Anju, the daughter of Vaikom Kulasekharamangalam Arakkal Ashoka was killed. Under British law, Saju could be sentenced to a minimum of 25 years in prison if found guilty of murder.
Help deliver the corpses
Vaikom∙Anju’s father Ashokan says that although it will take a huge amount of money to transport the dead bodies, he hopes to get the help of the government and the help of Malayalee organizations in Britain. They have received information that it will cost around 30 lakh rupees. Ashok cannot raise this amount by himself.
The Indian High Commission’s response is to be welcomed as part of the efforts being made through NORCA to bring the body home. Union Minister V. Muralidharan, MP Thomas Chazhikadan, Suresh Gopi and others were in contact with the Indian High Commission. Financial assistance was also offered through the Malayali Samajam.
