The argument escalated when the defendant injured his sister -in -law with a punch in the face, which led to several fractures and almost deadly brain hemorrhage. He also added superficial cuts to her with a long kitchen knife. The defendant's wife prevented the son of the injured party intervene, which led to the aid. Both accused also suffered injuries during the fight in which at least five people were involved.
