She stated that their family had been living in Abohar for the past few years and her husband used to work as a labourer. She said Mahesh’s father, who lived in UP, was addicted to alcohol and sold all his land a few months ago. He died a month ago.

When Mahesh went to UP, he became mentally disturbed due to the shock of losing the entire ancestral property, she stated.
