The incident took place when Rupa's husband had left for Tiptur two days prior. Taking in this, Raghu was at Rupa's home in an intoxicated state at 11 pm Wednesday. He had a quarrel with Rupa, saying that he wanted to sleep with her daughter.

At the point when Raghu dozed off, she cut his stomach with a kitchen knife and clubbed him with a vegetable grater. After killing Raghu, Rupa was clueless. She sat beside his dead bosy for half an hour. Rupa's children woke up from their sleep and started screaming after seeing their mother sitting next to a blood soaked dead body.
