He recalls that on May 1, 2011, he woke up early to listen to music, but realized his wife was unhappy and complained that the music was too loud.

“She saw me looking for our son and she came to me with the scissors in her hand. I tried to escape him, and that’s when we all fell. Unfortunately, she hit her head against the bed and her injuries were fatal,” said told Dola.
