The Mysuru murder case

Saleem an auto driver for 25 years from Mysuru, Karnataka raised his daughter Haseena to the best of his ability so she could study and live a good life. 

One fine day, Saleem found a match for his daughter, Nadim Muhammed Khan who relatively belonged to a poor family but eventually approved as the families met through a matchmaker. 

On the other hand, Nadim who was generally lethargic in nature and unemployed found a job so that he appears to be an eligible bachelor to match up Haseena's financial standards. 

Finally, after Saleem found Nadim suitable for his daughter, he gave Haseena's hand in marriage.  But three years into the marriage, Nadim started revealing his true colours. Lazing around, drinking with friends, quitting his job, Nadim started gradually depending on Saleem for his family expenses. 

Nadim often also got back home drunk and physically abused Haseena accusing her of cheating on him questioning her fidelity time and again. Despite Haseena pleading her innocence, Nadim accused her of having an affair behind his back while he was working.  He continued to harass Haseena to the point that she decided to return to her house. Saleem stood by his daughter's decision despite being threatened by Nadim.
