Mangaluru, Nov 24: The murder of a young woman from Kasargod by the serial lady killer Cyanide Mohan was proved at the sixth district and sessions court here on November 22. The quantum of punishment will be announced on November 26.
According to the details of this case, Mohan befriended a 28-year-old woman, beedi labourer, at the Kumble bus stand of Kasargod district in April 2009. Mohan introduced himself as Anand Poojary to the woman. He took her to a lodge in Kushalnagar on May 21, 2009 and had physical contact with her by promising that he would marry her. The following day morning, he took her to the nearby bus stand and gave her a cyanide tablet saying that it was the pregnancy prevention pill. The woman, who believed in killer Mohan, took the same in the toilet of the bus stand and died instantly. Mohan went to the lodge and took her gold ornaments and escaped from the spot.
The deceased woman had told her parents that she was going to her grandmother's house at Perla. When she did not return even after three days and also could not be contacted over the phone, the concerned parents had filed a missing case at the local police station. After Mohan was arrested in September 2009, this incident had come to light.
This is the 18th murder case of Cyanide Mohan. Public prosecutor Jayaram Shetty had argued for the prosecution in this case.
