The accident took place at night, and neighbors had not realized the terror that was going on a few steps away.
There are reports that the woman entered the compound unnoticed, poured flammable liquid in the room, and set it alight. She closed the door behind her, and the ex-boyfriend was left inside.
The room was on fire already by the time he woke up. The door was shut, and the room was full of smoke, without which he could escape. People shouted desperately, but the fire was spreading too fast to enable anyone to reach him in time.
Neighbourhood residents who saw the fire attempted to act, but it was too late. The fire engulfed the room fully, and the victim succumbed to his/her injuries on the spot.

According to the locals, the relationship between the two had not been smooth, as they would quarrel regularly and had had a recent breakup that apparently had left the woman very upset.
The society is shocked as the people struggle to come to terms with the senseless murder of a young life in an act that seems to have been carried out of passion gone wrong.
This is a shocking example of what untreated emotional trauma and uncontrolled rage may give way to, which cannot be imagined.
