Kasaragod: The Kerala government has granted parole to Anil Kumar, the fourth accused in the Periya double murder case in which Youth Congress workers Kripesh and Sarath Lal were hacked to death on February 17, 2019, due to political rivalry. Parole has been granted for one month with conditions, including a ban on entering Bekal police station limits.
Earlier, nine convicts in the case were shifted from Viyyur jail to Kannur Central Prison. The CBI court had sentenced all nine to double life imprisonment.
