“Neetu was miffed with his habit of drinking regularly. She objected to his drinking liquor in the past and did the same on Thursday as well. Ajit became angry. He first brutally assaulted her inside the bedroom, then strangled her and hanged her from the ceiling hook. After some time, when Neetu stopped screaming, I thought they had calmed down inside the room. But after some time, Ajit came out of the room and fled from there.
