Kozhikode (Kerala), Oct 19 (SocialNews.XYZ) A court on Saturday rejected the bail application of serial killer Jolly Thomas and her two accomplices, and remanded them to judicial custody till November 2.
The bail plea was heard at Thamarassery Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, near Kozhikode.
The three were arrested on October 5 in connection with the case of the murder of Jolly's husband, Roy Thomas.
According to police, Jolly has also confessed to killing five other members of her family between 2002-16.
Following her confession, the police have registered five cases of murder against the three accused in connection with the other deaths.
