An Indian accused of killing his estranged wife and another person in a New Jersey church has, in a videotaped confession, admitted to shooting them and said he would have killed everyone in the building if he had a machine gun at that time, according to authorities.
Joseph Pallipurath, a native of Kerala, who fatally shot his 24-year-old wife Reshma James, agreed to return to New Jersey when he was produced in a court in Georgia. Pallipurath also did not apologise or express remorse for the crime he committed.
Meanwhile, Reshma’s body is expected to be sent to India and officials at the Indian consulate in New York have offered all help. Police has also recovered the jeep in which Palliparuth escaped after the incident and the revolver which he is believed to have used during the shooting.
