She said her hopes and dreams were all dashed. They had a fight which became violent. She pounced on him and strangled him. He had been drinking, so he was in no position to resist."

He had been drinking all the way along with a woman relative. No one tried to wake Rohit Shekhar the next morning because he had insomnia. Someone went in hours later, around 4:00 pm, and saw him lying unconscious, with a nosebleed.
