A 34-year-old man was arrested on Sunday on charges of murdering his seven-year-old daughter.
The police said M. Radhakrishnan of Ayanavaram, a construction worker, and his wife Lavanya, a nurse at a private hospital in Rajamangalam, had separated a few months ago.
Ms. Lavanya had moved into a rented house on Villivakkam-Red Hills Road along with their two children. When Ms. Lavanya was at work on Saturday, an inebriated Radhakrishnan visited the house and allegedly stabbed his daughter Vandana with a knife. The victim’s brother, who was in the house, called for help.
