Police arrested a 26-year-old Chinese national in connection with a murder at Paya Lebar Crescent on Saturday.
She had allegedly stabbed her brother-in-law and slashed his wife.
Channel NewsAsia understands the suspect is the wife of opposition party member Tan Lead Shake, who was nicknamed "Slipper Man" for his choice of footwear when he contested in previous elections.
The incident took place at a two-storey bungalow. Blood stains were seen splattered all over the front porch.
Eyewitnesses and neighbours said they heard loud screams coming from the house from about 5am.
Neighbours interviewed said,
The screams were frantic, like they were coming from a crazy person
The women and the children were crying. They fight amongst themselves quite a lot. They were always quite noisy. Ya, I can always hear them shouting at one another.
Tan's wife was arrested at Victoria Street and she will be charged in court on Monday.
