Jerome out of Kolhapur jail on month-long parole

After the judgment in the case, the state government moved Bombay High Court seeking enhancement of punishment.

Neeraj's father, Amarnath Grover, too, approached the HC seeking harsher penalty and further probe in the case to establish Susairaj's involvement in the murder.

Jerome also appealed before High Court against his conviction.

The case that shook Mumbai

On May 7, 2008, Jerome landed at the rented apartment of Susairaj at Deeraj Solitaire in Malad (West)

On finding his girlfriend Maria Susairaj with television executive Neeraj Grover, Jerome allegedly lost his cool and got into a fight

Jerome allegedly killed Grover and, along with Susairaj, chopped his body into pieces before disposing it in the jungles of Manor in Thane district

Jerome was convicted in July 2011 of culpable homicide not amounting to murder. Susairaj was found guilty of destruction of evidence and sentenced to three years' imprisonment

Susairaj walked out of Byculla Jail a day after she was sentenced, as she had already spent three years behind bars
