Two Kerala women killed in California, minister Gopi steps in to bring home bodies
Two women from Kerala, Anjana Hari and Ann Mathew, were allegedly killed in California by a friend, Anila, who lived with them in the same apartment complex. Anjana was from Mudikkode, Thrissur, while Ann hailed from Kesavadasapuram, Thiruvananthapuram. The motive behind the murders remains unclear, and the matter is still under investigation by US police.
Milpitas Police in California received a report of a hit-and-run incident near the Mill Creek Apartments, where they found Ann with severe injuries. Subsequently, a blue SUV matching the description of the alleged vehicle fled the scene, leading to the arrest of its 32-year-old driver, a resident of Milpitas. Union Minister Suresh Gopi confirmed the deaths and mentioned that arrangements are being made to return the victims' bodies to Kerala.
The families were informed on Saturday that Anjana had died in the hospital, despite initially being told she was merely in an accident.
