‘Wife and son chained me to B&B radiator’

A 65-year-old man has said he was falsely imprisoned, assaulted, and handcuffed to a radiator by his estranged wife and his son in the bathroom of a B&B.

The defendants claim they are innocent and that the complainant set it up to make it look like he had been the victim of a crime.

Nireshan Naidoo, 29, and his mother, Vesalatachee Naidoo, 62, from London, and with no fixed address in Ireland, were put on trial yesterday on charges of falsely imprisoning Arumugan Naidoo, robbing him of cash, passport, and reading glasses, and assaulting him, causing harm to him.
