Recalling the horrifying incident, Rani said, "All was good in my life, but Nitin grew suspicious of me over the past couple of months. I always used to be well dressed, but somehow he did not like it. He thought that I was having an extra marital affair. On May 1, after returning home, Nitin started drinking. Later, I went off to sleep after taking pills, as I was unwell. All of a sudden he started kicking and punching me. He even slashed my face with a blade and threatened to kill me. After my children raised an alarm, neighbours rushed in to help."
