Somasekar hails from Ponniyamman Temple Street, Sainathapuram, Vellore. He was married and had a baby girl when he had an affair with his wife. It is said that he and his wife took the baby girl. Thus, Somasekhar, who was living alone, got married for the second time to a 40-year-old woman named Babykala from Padi New Town, Chennai. Their marriage took place on the ninth of September last year at the temple in Chennai. The second wife is already married and divorced from the first husband. At this point, within a few days of remarriage, the couple began to suffer.
Babykala is said to have been abused by her husband Somasekara and mother-in-law Santa. If the husband and mother-in-law go outside, they can leave the baby locked inside the house. On April 19, Babykala lodged a complaint against her husband and mother-in-law at the Bhagayam police station. On the same day, Babykala went to her mother’s house in Chennai. It is said that the police did not call and investigate the complaint.
