According to police, S Gokul Nath (30), a resident of Mohan Ram Nagar, Mogappair, was working as an engineer at a software firm in Bengaluru.

They also started having an intimate relationship. However, in the last few months, the couple had fights and Geetha avoided contacting Gokul. This irked Gokul and he started pestering Geetha to give back Rs 5 lakh he had spent for her. He then started threatening her over phone. Following this, Geetha lodged a complaint with the Arumbakkam police, who arrested Gokul.
