According to him, rumours have it that the suspect might be mentally deraigned.
He added, “Well, that’s for the court and medical doctors to determine.”
The police spokesman wondered why a child who has a mental issue will be kept at home instead of a psychiatric home.
“Often times these mentally deraigned children end up killing their parents and the people who have been pampering and taking care of them,” he added.
