Kerala business tycoon gets lifer for killing security guard with hummer
He has also been fined Rs. 71 lakh.
Nisham had been convicted by a court on Wednesday. He had pleaded "bipolar disorder" for a lenient sentence.
Nisham was arrested in January last year for running over the guard at the gated neighbourhood in Thrissur.
On Wednesday, the court was told that he rammed his SUV into 51-year-old Chandrabose after the man was late in opening the gates. Then he pinned him to a wall, dragged him for 700 metres, stomped on him and then shouted "this dog will not die". Nisha was reportedly in a drunken state.
Nisham's business empire also includes hotels and real estate.
