Earlier, the husband of the accused woman had claimed that his wife was mentally disturbed and was undergoing treatment.
Locals said Bhawani and his brother had been at loggerheads over a piece of land. The sibling duo was in a bitter relationship over the land dispute. So, it is suspected that Bhawani’s brother and sister-in-law hired contract killers from Balasore to kill the former.

As there were no eyewitnesses in the case, the Court gave the verdict after going through the circumstantial evidence and examination of over 31 witnesses.
