The couple used to argue every day, especially when Srinivas was under the influence of alcohol. Sudha had left Srinivas and returned to her parental home in Hoskote over his drinking habit, but they had reconciled through family mediation just a month earlier.

However, the couple started quarreling again two days ago. The argument escalated and ended in murder. The Bagalur police have arrested Srinivas and registered a case.
