Neha Hiremath Murder: Accused Fayaz's mother accepted that what her son did was wrong, and demanded that he be punished severely.

Neha Hiremath Murder: Accused Fayaz’s mother accepted that what her son did was wrong, and demanded that he be punished severely.

Refuting Niranjan Hiremath’s claim of ‘love jihad’, Fayaz’s mother claimed the deceased herself took her son’s phone number, and she made the first move.

The mother of 23-year-old Fayaz, who allegedly stabbed a Congress Corporator’s daughter to death, has for the first time spoken to the media, even as deceased’s father claimed that ‘love jihad’ was the motive behind the murder.

“Fayaz was under depression. He was sitting at home for one and a half years,” Mumtaz, the MCA dropout accused’s mother, told News18 Kannada.

Refuting Niranjan Hiremath’s claim of an attempt of forced marital religious conversion, Mumtaz told reporters that Neha and Fayaz were in love. She claimed that the deceased herself took Fayaz’s number when he became ‘University Blue’ in a body-building competition, and she made the first move.

Mumtaz, however, accepted that what her son did was wrong, and demanded that he be punished severely as per the rule of the land.
