The Kerala police on Tuesday claim they have arrested Kari Satheeshan, the prime accused in the Paul Muthoot murder case. Paul was the son of Muthoot M George, managing director of the Rs 20,000 crore Muthoot group of companies. Though the police claim Satheeshan has confessed to his crime, political parties have accused the police of trying to cover up the facts.
According to the police, George was murdered by the gang on 'sudden provocation' following a scuffle after his car hit and injured a motorcyclist on the Alappuzha-Changanassery road.
