Shocked Indian community praises Victorian Police for arresting suspect for toddler's murder

Melbourne, Mar.8 (ANI): The Indian Australian community has praised Victorian Police for their investigation of the death of three-year-old toddler Gurshan Singh, and the arrest of prime suspect Gursewak Dhillon.

Victoria Police denied Indian media reports that claimed that Dhillon's wife had also been arrested.

"Definitely not. The wife has not been arrested or charged," the Herald Sun quoted a police spokeswoman, as saying.

She added that no further arrests or charges over the three-year-old boy's death are expected at this time.

Dhillon appeared in an out-of-sessions court hearing last night charged with manslaughter by criminal negligence.

Raman Deep Singh, a cousin of Gurshan's father Harjit Singh Channa, said they were all shocked that Dhillon was charged.

"This is our friend, not a close friend, but we know the person, it is a shock, (we are) shocked man," he said. (ANI)
