The Kerala High Court today upheld the death sentence of Sebastian, awarded by additional district judge in connection with the rape and murder of a two-year-old girl at Fishermen’s colony in Pozhiyoor in August, 2005.
The case against Sebastian alias `Cheviathan’, is that he had kidnapped the child, Saranya, from her mother’s side by entering their ill-secured hutment at night.
The prosecution case is that Sebastian raped the girl nearly 100 m away from her house, stole her gold ornaments and then threw her into the nearby canal.
