The Bombay High Court on Tuesday (Oct 1) confirmed the death penalty imposed by a Kolhapur court on a man for killing his mother in 2017 and allegedly eating some of the body parts, noting this was a case of cannibalism. The bench said this was a case of cannibalism and it falls under the rarest of rare category. “The case falls under the rarest of rare category. The convict not only murdered his mother but he also removed her body parts – brain, heart, liver, kidney, intestine and was cooking them on a pan,” the High Court said.
The Bombay High Court seeks new psychiatric, psychological, and Probation Welfare Officer’s reports for Sunil Rama Kuchkoravi, convicted of killing his mother and desecrating her organs in Kolhapur in 2017. The court is concurrently reviewing the state’s petition to confirm his death sentence and Kuchkoravi’s appeal against it.
