Ada lived with her husband, Raj, and four children in government housing for the homeless. They had little, but were honest. Five years ago Raj was seemingly befriended by Vijay, a property dealer who also gambled. Since then Vijay had often come to Raj’s home.  Ada did not mind as they appeared to enjoy each other’s company.

One day, Vijay arrived announcing he had won a considerable sum of money.  To celebrate, he gave Raj money to buy sweets for the family and other essentials.  Raj left with the children, leaving Ada alone in the house with Vijay. While Raj was out, Vijay allegedly attempted to sexually assault Ada, but Raj returned unexpectedly.  As Raj walked in on the chaos, Vijay picked up a knife, stabbed Ada, and fled the house.
