Melvin Thomas, 32, an Indian-American originally from Kerala, was arrested in New Jersey for the murder of his 61-year-old father, Manuel V Thomas. The Paramus Police Department responded to a possible murder report on February 16, discovering Manuel's body in the basement two days after the incident. Melvin faces charges including first-degree murder and desecration of human remains. Residents were alarmed by the police response, as major crimes are rare in the area. Melvin, an alumnus of St Stephen’s College Uzhavoor, called the police himself. The nature of the relationship between the victim and the accused remains undisclosed.
