Kerala: College student burnt to death by stalker
Thrissur: A 22-year-old engineering student was Thursday burnt alive inside her house here by a man who had been allegedly stalking her, police said.

The accused, Neethish (32), is suspected to have gained entry into the house through the backdoor, K Rajan, a local MLA said.
