According to the case statement, Wahiduzzaman, son of Mozammel Hossain of Singair upazila married a woman named Tithi, but convicted Rezaul had love affairs with that woman. Meanwhile, Wahiduzzaman gave Rezaul Tk 10 to go to Italy. As he could not go abroad, Wahiduzzaman asked convict Rezaul to return his money and that finally led to an altercation.
