Nizhalkkuthu

Dans le sud du Kerala, la principauté de Travancore avait son bourreau officiel. Celui-ci devait vivre à l'extérieur du village, loin des sujets du prince. En contrepartie, il bénéficiait de quelques privilèges : un lopin de terre, une pension annuelle et une compensation financière après chaque exécution.

Kaliyappan, the last hangman of Travancore dynasty is dragging his remaining life by consuming alcohol and worshipping the Mother Goddess.
