October 4, 2019
In an audio recording attached with the report, a provincial police officer claimed that Mr Tum had an affair with Mr Makara’s wife, who recently separated from her husband.

“Most people living here have known that Mr Tum stole Mr Makara’s wife. They were trapped in a love triangle for a while,” the officer noted. “Mr Makara usually joined workshops in other provinces and the wife cheated on him.”

“They were both friends but Mr Tum also use to taunt Mr Makara over the affair. I think he could not take it any longer and decided to kill Mr Tum,” the officer added. “Most villagers here knew what was happening between them but did not think he would do this.”

'Loss of Face!!!!!'. Behind many of these tragic events there are 2 factors. 1) A woman (2 ) A 'loss of face' that needs sorting out.

The consequences of the pay back are not important to the person who has lost face.
