“They had come before to the police station about fights between the two. He had tried similar things earlier as well, but the family had not lodged a complaint. This time they did,” said assistant police inspector Gajanan Bansode of Bhosari police station who is investigating the case.
The man is unemployed and has studied until class seven. He is habitual of drug and alcohol consumption and often picks fights with his family members, according to the complainant.
