He stayed at her house for almost a week and Vinutha managed to arrange a job for Shivaraj.  Later, he confessed his love, but she turned him down. After a few days, she agreed when Shivaraj threatened to commit suicide.

Bharath came to know about the affair and decided to kill Shivaraj.  Vinutha also left her husband’s house and started living alone at Andrahalli

It is said that Bharath entered the house around 8.30 pm when Vinutha had gone to a nearby store to buy chicken. He hid under the cot around 9 pm till 3 am.  Around 10.30 pm her lover came to her place and they went to sleep after dinner.

Around 3 am when Vinutha went to the washroom, Bharath locked her inside and tried to strangle her partner, and also stabbed him multiple times in the abdomen with a knife.
