19-month-old Pavinya and three-year-old Nigish died in. Credit: PA A man who slit the throats of his two young children during lockdown has been detained in hospital indefinitely. Shop worker Nadarajah Nithiyakumar killed his 19-month-old daughter Pavinya and three-year-old son Nigish while his wife was in the shower at their home in Ilford. The 41-year-old admitted manslaughter by diminished responsibility after psychiatrists concluded he was suffering a delusional disorder. At the Old Bailey on Thursday, Mrs Justice Cutts handed him a hospital order without limit of time. She told him: The consequences of your actions have been devastating. Two young and innocent children have had their futures and their lives taken from them by their own father.
