SINGAPORE: Police arrested a 26-year-old Chinese national in connection with a murder at Paya Lebar Crescent on Saturday.
She had allegedly stabbed her brother-in-law and slashed his wife.
Channel NewsAsia understands the suspect is the wife of opposition
party member Tan Lead Shake, who was nicknamed "Slipper Man" for his
choice of footwear when he contested in previous elections.
The incident took place at a two-storey bungalow. Blood stains were seen splattered all over the front porch.
Eyewitnesses and neighbours said they heard loud screams coming from the house from about 5am.
"The screams were frantic, like they were coming from a crazy person," said a neighbour.
"The women and the children were crying," said another. "They fight
amongst themselves quite a lot. They were always quite noisy. Ya, I can
always hear them shouting at one another."
Police were called to the scene at 6am. They found a man and a woman, both injured, in a bedroom on the second level.
"The man suffered stab wounds to his body while the woman suffered
neck injuries. A knife with blood stains was found within the house
compound," said a police spokesperson.
The couple were sent to hospital. But the 34-year-old man was
pronounced dead an hour later, while his wife is in critical condition.
The dead man is the younger brother of opposition party member Tan Lead Shake.
Later in the afternoon, police arrested Tan's wife at Victoria
Street in connection with the murder. She will be charged in court on
Monday. If found guilty, she faces the death penalty. - CNA/ir
