Cops release suspect`s sketch as public outrage grows in Kerala`s `Nirbhaya` case

New Delhi: Almost a week after she was found raped and murdered at her home in Kerala's Ernakulam district, the cops on Wednesday released a sketch of a suspect in the barbaric rape and murder case. 

The case is being compared with the rape-cum-murder of `Nirbhaya` that shook the Indian capital -- and much of the country -- in December 2012.

Jisha,  30, a law student, was found in a pool of blood on April 28 at her home near a canal in Perumbavoor by her mother, a labourer. 
Her body was badly mutilated. There were injuries on her private parts, according to police.

Based on the preliminary investigation, cops have managed to detain three persons but no arrest has been made so far in the case.
