What was the Jolly Joseph case about?

The Koodathayi Cyanide Case began to unravel when Rojo Thomas, in June 2019, raised suspicions regarding his brother's death nearly a decade prior. Initially deemed a suicide, Rojo's complaint triggered a shocking turn of events. This complaint marked the inception of a gripping saga that captured international attention, unveiling a series of six deaths within the same family, all linked to Jolly Joseph.

The deaths spanned over a decade, claiming the lives of Jolly's mother-in-law, father-in-law, husband, uncle, cousin's wife, and a two-year-old child. The unfolding of this haunting narrative invites audiences to contemplate the fragility of human relationships and the unsettling mysteries concealed within seemingly ordinary lives.
