Santhi was working with a private hospital. She was the daughter of KV Thomas, the former vice president of the Payippad panchayat in Changanassery.
Santhi had been married to Joby for four years and joined him in Dubai around two years ago. The couple has a three-year-old daughter, who has been living with Joby's family in Kerala.
