Incidentally, this verdict is considered very rare in India’s judicial history, as in one single case such a large number of people have been sentenced to death.
A Special NIA court in Kerala's Ernakulam has awarded life imprisonment to three of the six Popular Front of India (PFI) cadres in a 2010 case of attempted murder of a Professor by chopping off his palm.
According to the officials, nearly 100 people were either arrested or detained during the raids which have been termed as the "largest-ever investigation process till date".
