The Supreme Court has stayed the execution of the death sentence of Muhammed Ameer Ameer-Ul-Islam, the migrant laborer convicted in the rape-murder case of Dalit law student Jisha Surya in Kerala. The court has called for a psychological evaluation of the convict, reports on his conduct in prison, and mitigating circumstances. Ameerul Islam challenged the death penalty's constitutionality and claimed innocence. The stay remains until a final verdict is reached, with the Court emphasizing detailed evaluations and reports from various institutions. The case sparked public outrage in Kerala due to the brutal nature of the crime and the delayed arrest of the accused.
