When your friends tell you to dump your partner, make sure to end things on a good note.
If not, they might come back for you, but not in a romantic “you’re the only one for me” way, but rather, in an “I wish you burn in hell” way.
Setting Fire to His Ex-Girlfriend’s Husband’s House
After coming across her Instagram post containing news of his ex-girlfriend’s marriage, Surenthiran flew into a fit of fury. As the burning rage in him cannot be appeased by simply moving on, he decided to wreak havoc on the wedding itself.

During the early hours of 12 March 2022, Surenthiran rode his motorcycle down to the soon-to-be-husband’s house in Jurong West to conduct his vengeance.
Dressed in an all-black hoodie and long pants, he began to make his way to the victim’s unit. To avoid being captured on the close-circuit television cameras that were placed throughout the lift lobby, he purposefully threw the hood over his face.
Instead of alighting on the 13th floor where the victim stayed, he alighted on the 12th floor and walked up the stairs.
Effort, indeed.
Here, he began to carry out his vengeance by igniting his victim’s property.
Not with the fire within him, but rather, the empty bottle filled with petrol that he brought along.
Around 4:40 am, Surenthiran used a bicycle lock to secure the victim’s main gate before lighting the shoe rack outside on fire with petrol.
After the crime was done, he descended the stairs and rode the lift down to the ground floor, discarding the lighter in the bushes before taking off on his motorcycle.

Courtroom Discussions
Thankfully, only the victim’s footwear was damaged by the fire. One pair of slippers and six pairs of shoes were severely burned, costing about S$410 in damages overall.
During the court session, the prosecutor requested a jail sentence of six to nine months, citing the substantial threat that the mischief by fire offense posed, as well as the fact that the defendant used petrol as an accelerant for the fire.
The prosecutor continued that the crime was premeditated because the accused took precautions to avoid being caught by the police.
Since he had also locked the gates, the situation could have been very severe for the occupants inside, with no accessible means of escape if the fire spread.
Currently, the defence has asked the court to show mercy and leniency with a shorter jail term for Surenthiran.

Surenthiran’s sentencing will resume in December.
Though the fault of this whole incident is clearly the accused’s, it doesn’t hurt to remember to be careful when burning your bridges.
