Newsroom, Oct 9: A new-mother and her paramour from coastal Karnataka have been remanded to judicial custody by a local court in Tamil Nadu for two weeks after their arrest in connection with the coldblooded murder of former’s husband Mohammad Sameer.

35-year-old Sameer, who hailed from Ganjimutt in Mangaluru taluk had gone missing a month after he returned from Saudi Arabia to see his wife Firdous and newborn child. The missing case was converted into a murder case after police in Tamil Nadu’s Devadanapatti found Sameer’s dead body on September 23.
