“I didn’t think I would kill her. And neither did my ex ”, B. told the police earlier. He said he planned to talk to Diya’s mother about the abuse. Nirmalkoemar was walking down the hospital corridor with his daughter when panic suddenly struck. “They’re going to get you, they’re going to get you, they’re going to get you,” he thought. “I did it, there was no one else. I just wanted it to end for her. ”
The court in Rotterdam, where the 42-year-old B. is on trial, read this statement from the file on Friday morning. The suspect, who at the time suffered from fears and delusions, now says he cannot remember that he killed his daughter. He was confused, he says. Regarding his statement with the ‘motive’ at the time, he said in court: “At the time I thought it was so. But I don’t think like that for a long time. ”
Suspect Nirmalkoemar B. (42) has previously admitted that he stabbed his daughter in the chest with scissors and left her in a room in the radiology department. Late in the evening, the girl was found at his direction, very badly injured.
Our reporter Saskia Belleman is present at the case. You can find her report at the bottom of the article.
Fears and delusions
In the evening of March 15 last year, B. and Diya were in the Maasstad Hospital for complaints that B. had. The suspect from Hoogvliet at the time was troubled by fears and delusions, for which he repeatedly raised the alarm at authorities. The inspectorate investigated this and concluded that care providers did not pick up on signals sufficiently, but that the death of the girl could not be prevented.
The psychiatrist and psychologist at the Pieter Baan Center advise the court to at least impose compulsory treatment on the suspect. They also do not rule out that B. was completely insane when he stabbed his daughter. That could mean that the crime cannot be held against him. B. would then be obliged to undergo intensive psychiatric treatment.
