In her complaint, the victim’s mother has stated that the accused was suspicious of Kailashben having an extramarital affair, which led to frequent fights between the two. The mother further alleged that the accused had earlier beaten the victim on several occasions and threatened to kill her, too. Based on the complaint, the accused has been booked under IPC section 302 (Murder) and 506 (Criminal intimidation).
