Four arrested for pre-planned murder in Thiruvananthapuram

In Thiruvananthapuram, four men were arrested for murdering Visakh, their neighbor and relative, in front of his house.

The police said the murder was planned a day in advance, with the accused arranging weapons and a vehicle.

Visakh and the main accused, Pradeep, had a long-running property dispute.

Pradeep had previously been arrested for attempting to murder Visakh.

The accused tried to mislead the police by leaving weapons in an abandoned car, but the police found seven weapons related to the case.

The victim's family claims the police ignored earlier threats, but the police say they investigated and found no immediate threat.
