When he tried to open the door, the accused allegedly attacked the man too and hit him with a frying pan. As neighbours heard the screams, they gathered and entered the house.
They rushed the woman to the hospital, where doctors declared her dead. The family of the woman alleged that even after receiving information, the police did not arrive immediately.
