Renuka Singh, the wife of dismissed Railway Protection Force (RPF) Constable Chetan Singh, the accused in the Jaipur-Mumbai Central Superfast Express shootout case, told mid-day she regretted her husband’s actions but claimed he was driven by mental illness. She says he did not harbour any communal beliefs.

Renuka said, “Chetan was an avid follower of speeches by leaders like Narendra Modi and Yogi Adityanath and often watched them through various mediums. However, his actions and the unfortunate events surrounding him were driven by a mental illness, causing a significant decline in his mental well-being. Chetan struggled with negative thoughts, and it’s important to note that he did not harbour communal beliefs.”
