Who is the suspect

His name is Jayselan N. Chandrasegar and he will be remanded at the Institute of Mental Health for two weeks for a psychiatric evaluation.

After his charge, he said, “Mayuri is my wife. For the mistake that she did, I admit that what I did to her was wrong.”

“I only stabbed her twice, not more than that. I did not think that I’ll do such a thing to my wife. I have a child at home, I couldn’t take it that she did this to me and my child,” he added.

He requested a phone call

The former IMH patient requested a phone call but was denied.

He also requested to be kept in a solitary environment at IMH, claiming that he was not able to stay with any person as it will affect his condition.

The current situation
