The five men – S. Gopinaath, 32, J. Ragesuthan, 24, S. Gokulan, 24, V. Sharmah, 24 and K. Tatisan, 23 – were previously jointly charged with murdering Nhaveen at the Jalan Bunga Raya park sometime between 11pm and midnight on 9 June 2017. The key witness in the case, T. Previin, also failed to produce a consistent account of the events that day and thus, was not seen as credible.

There was evidence that Nhaveen succumbed to his injuries including blunt force trauma to the head a few days after the incident, but the accurate account of what happened that day was murky.
