Othalanga or Cerbera odollam - ഒതളങ്ങ
... also known commonly as 'suicide tree' grows wild along the coast in many parts of Kerala, India. It's a potent killer, often used for both suicide and murder. It kills by blocking the calcium ion channels in heart muscles, thus disrupting the heartbeat.
But unlike many toxins, pathologists would not be able to identify othalanga poisoning unless there is physical evidence that the victim had eaten it....
So make sure NOT to leave any traces of OTHALANGA before you eat :-)
