The court held Gangadhar guilty as he killed Lakshmi for reprimanding him for not going to work. He smashed Lakshmi’s head with a brick and stick at her house resulting in her death instantaneously.

Since Gangadhar was addicted to alcohol, Lakshmi requested him to mend his ways and advised him to go to work. However, Gangadhar did not mend his ways and when she seriously warned him, Gangadhar murdered her.

The police registered a murder case against Gangadhar and arrested him.
