According to the woman, Nitin Pathare had promised that he would get her some work. The woman claims that Nitin had imprisoned her and her children and threatened to kill them. On September 27, 2017, Nitin told the woman to go to Thane and find work for herself. In the afternoon Nitin called and informed that his son had an epileptic attack. When she returned, Nitin told her that he had killed the woman’s son.
In her statement given in the court, the woman has said that her son was hurt and Nitin had threatened her five-year-old daughter that if she saved anything, he would kill her too.
