One crore rupees prize!
Tired of working hard all day and not being able to meet even the daily expenses, many people buy lottery tickets to see if luck will give them a hand. Sukumariamma, a 72-year-old woman who sells hats on the street at Museum Junction in Thiruvananthapuram, has won a prize of one crore rupees.
Kerala Fifty Fifty Lottery
Sukumariamma bought 12 tickets in the same series in the Fifty Fifty lottery for Rs 1200 from Kannan, a local lottery vendor. The ticket numbered FG 348822 he bought won the first prize of Rs 1 crore. This money will fulfill Sukumariamma’s long-held dream of building a house of her own. But for that Sukumariamma has to wait for a few days. Because that’s what Lottery seller Kannan did out of greed!
12 tickets
Sukumariamma usually buys lottery tickets from Kannan. Sometimes small amounts of gifts fall through, many times they don’t. On May 15th Kannan went to Sukumariamma and bought all 12 of his tickets after learning that the first prize was one crore rupees.
Cheating lottery ticket seller
He said that 500 rupees have been paid for all the 12 tickets. Since the prize money is 6000 rupees, Sukumariamma has given 500 rupees to Kannan as a reward. Kannano celebrated winning Rs 1 crore in the lottery in his hometown Pallayam area by offering sweets. Radhakrishnan, another lottery vendor who came to know about this, informed Prabha. Prabha also has a good habit of making Sukumariam.
Sukumariamma’s dream of building a house
Sukumariamma has come to know through Prabha that Kannan cheated on the ticket that won him a prize of one crore rupees. After that when I tried to contact Kannan, his number was switched off. Later, when Sukumariamma filed a complaint in the police department, Kannan was arrested and interrogated by the police and admitted the truth. They say that the ticket will be handed over to Sukumariamma in two days and then the prize money will be given.
