Meanwhile, a family member of the deceased who requested anonymity claimed that the couple got into a heated argument after the suspect tried to stop a carpenter hired by the wife from installing a net in their window.
He claimed that the suspect assaulted the wife after she refused to let the carpenter finish the job.
“The deceased hired a carpenter to install a mosquito net in their windows, but the husband stopped the carpenter, which the wife resisted, and the husband eventually began beating her in the process,” he claimed.
