KOTTAYAM: A court in Mavelikkara in Alappuzha district on Tuesday sentenced a Bangladeshi national to death for murdering an elderly couple at their residence in Venmony near Chengannur in 2019.
Additional district judge Kenneth George pronounced the death sentence for the first accused in the case Lablu Hasan, 39, who hails from Bangladesh. However, the court exempted co-accused Juval Hasan, 24, from death sentence considering his young age at the time of crime and sentenced him to a life term.
