So Husband, wife, 5yr old son and 10 yr old son live there. Wife and 5 yr old stabbed to death and 'a man' is in custody. I guess it's not the husband? Very cryptic article

Tributes have been paid to Ms Chen, who lived with her husband Shuai Yuan, a high flying data analyst, and their older son, 10.

I think it's the husband. They won't say until he's charged. The man arrested is the same age as the husband.

Yeah I see. I guess they can't even say the husband was detained for questioning (if at all). The phrasing is so weird

Nobody else is sought in connection with the two deaths

(Does this mean she killed her child then stabbed herself to death ?)

"The 37-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder.
Police said he was released following a post mortem examination of Yi Chen...

Nobody else is sought in connection with the two deaths."

Sounds like a murder suicide. Terrible. I'm glad it's not both children but I wonder why just the daughter?

Oh that's awful, I wasn't expecting that. Well both scenarios are awful, but you know what I mean.
