Citing the police, the media report read that Nayab and his wife began the day with a quarrel that further escalated when his wife scolded their son for buying milk with spoilt packaging. On returning home from work the man found his wife lying on the bed and continuing to watch Pakistani drama shows completely oblivious to his presence. Enraged by this he lashed out at her with a knife, breaking one of her thumbs.

The wife lodged a complaint with the police. Nayab was arrested later by the police under the "attempt to murder" clause of the Indian Penal Code.
