Walayar mother releases biography

The mother of the two girls who had been found dead in mysterious circumstances in their house at Walayar five years ago, released her biography on Friday. The release of the book titled Njan Walayar Amma, Peru Bhagyavathi marked the fifth death anniversary of the younger sibling.

Gandhian and former Minister V.C. Kabeer released the book by handing over a copy to former National Women’s Commission member J. Prameela Devi at a function held in front of the girls’ house at Attappallam near Walayar. Kairali Books, Kannur, published the biography which, according to the girls’ mother, will open up a pandora’s box.

Inaugurating a commemorative meeting, State Mahila Congress president Jebi Mather said that it was shame on the State that the perpetrators of the crime that killed the two minor girls of Walayar were still going unpunished.
