Released on bail in daughter’s murder case, Chennai man held again for threatening wife
The police arrested Satish, stating that he murdered his daughter to exact revenge on his wife, Rebecca, with whom he had a marital dispute.
CHENNAI: The Otteri police have arrested a man for threatening his estranged wife and her family, weeks after his release from prison in connection with the murder of his 6-year-old daughter in a hotel room earlier this year.
The accused, Satish, was arrested in July in connection with the alleged murder of his daughter, Steffi (6), who was found dead with a slit throat inside a hotel room near the city Airport.
The police arrested Satish, stating that he murdered his daughter to exact revenge on his wife, Rebecca, with whom he had a marital dispute.
Satish was released from prison on conditional bail a few days ago and has been allegedly threatening Rebecca and her relatives through phone calls and social media messages, after which Rebecca approached the police with a complaint.
After investigations, the police arrested Satish. He was produced before a magistrate and remanded in judicial custody.
