the law provides for death or life imprisonment for the person accused of murder. If the murder falls in the category of rarest of rare crime than courts sentance person to the death penalty otherwise life imprisonment. in this case, the crime is very heinous and looks to be the serial killer. therefore, the person will be sentanced to death most probably. rest depends on evidence etc
