A woman from the south Indian state of Kerala who is the prime suspect in six mysterious deaths in her family has now been linked to three more deaths.
Jolly is currently in judicial custody and reports have since emerged that she was also planning to eliminate two children.
The wife of the uncle of Jolly's first husband Roy Thomas (who was killed by Jolly using cyanide) said that with reports now surfacing linking Jolly to several other murders, she suspects her involvement in two deaths in her family - that of her son Sunish who died in a bike accident in 2002 and his cousin Vincent who was found hanging.
Doubts have also been raised over the death of a Congress party worker named Ramakrishnan by his son and the police have tagged this case along with the five other deaths that took place in Jolly's family between 2002 and 2016.
Senior police official K G Simon, who is leading the probe, said on Wednesday, "With regards to the reports of the intent of Jolly to eliminate two more children, at the moment I cannot say anything. All the murders will be investigated by separate teams."
Jolly and two accomplices who helped her by supplying cyanide, have been arrested for plotting the murder of her first husband Roy Thomas and presently this is the only case that has been registered by the police probe team.
Kerala police chief Loknath Behra said he is determined to unravel the case. "First, let us get the custody of Jolly and then things will be decided," he said.
In a related development, a local astrologer from Kattapana in Idukki district from where Jolly originally hails, has also been reported missing.
Jolly had told the police during questioning that she had consulted him for astrological guidance for the welfare of her present husband.
The police have also found that the will of Roy Thomas' father was forged by Jolly who was helped by local politicians and high-level revenue officials.
