Maganlal Barela, man who beheaded his five daughters in Sehore district of Madhya Pradesh in 2011, would be executed in the central jail, Jabalpur on Thursday morning.
He was found guilty of beheading his daughters Arti 4, Savita, 5, Leela, 6, Jamuna, 1, and Phool Kanwar, 2, to death with an axe following a dispute over property with his two wives on June 11, 2010. Police charged him under Section 302 of the IPC.
As per reports, he will be hanged by the executioner of Pakistani terrorist Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasab. The Sehore district and sessions court has issued Maganlal's "black warrant" for execution of sentence on August 8.
President Pranab Mukherjee had rejected Maganlal's plea for clemency on July 22, 2013 after subsequent dismissal of his pleas for converting capital punishment into life imprisonment by MP high court (Jabalpur bench) and Supreme Court of India.
