The City Crime Branch probing the Chakkaraparambu car accident on Saturday received three days’ custody of Syju Thankachan, who was arrested on Friday in connection with the case. Three persons, including two models, lost their lives in the accident that occurred on November 1.
Thankachan was arrested for allegedly stalking the victims of the ill-fated car in another car and thus abetting culpable homicide caused by overspeeding. CCTV footage of him following the victims led to his arrest.
He was taken to Hotel No 18 at Fort Kochi where he and the victims had attended a late night party, and along the route through which he had allegedly tailed the victims’ car. He was taken to a point between Thevara Ferry Junction and Kundanoor Bridge and to another point near Kundannoor Junction where he reportedly had interactions with the occupants of the car. The ill-fated car sped away and met with the accident shortly after those interactions. Thankachan had claimed that he had followed them only to advise them against driving in an inebriated state.
