Mohammed Nisham sentenced to life
The court also fined him Rs.70 lakh.
Mohammed Nisham, known as "the beedi king" of Kerala and having an empire that includes real estate and hotel businesses as well, was arrested on charges of ramming his SUV right into Chandrabose, a security guard at the gated neighbourhood where the businessmen lives in Thiruvananthapuram.
The police said that Nisham was drunk, and enraged because Chandrabose fumbled for a few seconds.
The businessmen reportedly drove his SUV into the guard, pinning him into the wall, then got out of the car to beat him up.
Chandrabose died in hospital three weeks later.
