Pethan Das, the elderly mother-in-law of the deceased, said, I brought a handful of radish vegetables to my daughter-in-law at around 7 am and went to the nearby shop. When he came home at 9 o'clock, the vegetable was outside. Later, when I called my daughter-in-law, I did not get any answer and went inside their house and saw Shibla hanging from the neck with a fly on the shore. When I screamed, the neighbors came.
