DSP DUNGUS ABDULKARIM said police investigations reveal that the suspect took pride in the crime, as he ruled out possible mental disorder.

“I don’t think it’s a mental disorder. A person who happens to be a graduate…And secondly, a school teacher, having two wives…somebody with mental disorder can be having two wives and children; how possible is that?”
