HER HEART WAS ALREADY BROKEN BEFORE HER LIFE WAS TAKEN..! – JANA ARMSTRONG’S FINAL HEARTBREAK HAS COME TO LIGHT AS THE CASE TAKES ANOTHER EMOTIONAL TURN.
A young mother whose body was found in bushland had recently discovered the father of her newborn baby was married with two other children, a family friend has revealed.
Toowoomba taxi driver Dharminder Singh, 48, is accused of the domestic violence murder of 30-year-old Jana Armstrong, mother of their four-month-old son Deshal.
A search was launched for Ms Armstrong, when she was reported missing on July 8 after her Hyundai Kona was found abandoned near her Gordon Avenue unit in the suburb of Newtown.
Pig hunters found her remains on Saturday evening in dense bushland down a steep slope off Esk Hampton Road, Redbank Creek, an hour north of Toowoomba.
Singh was arrested on Sunday morning, and faced Toowoomba Magistrates Court on Monday, where he was remanded in custody and will reappear in October.
A friend who has known Ms Armstrong and her family for almost 20 years, and who was also a frequent passenger in Singh’s maxi taxi, said the new mum had recently found out he was married to another woman – who is also a taxi driver.
‘I saw Jana, three days before she disappeared, at Grand Central [shopping centre],’ said the friend who requested anonymity.
‘She was with bubby in a pram and another carer. She actually asked me if I knew that Dharminder was married.
‘I had told her five weeks before that that he was bad news.’
