Mirza and his fiancée were addicted to drugs and were intoxicated when the said incident happened. They had gone to a hotel in Juhapura and used the adhesive as they were not carrying a condom. "Several witnesses said that Mirza and his fiancée, both of whom were addicted to drugs, had gone to a hotel in Juhapura," a police officer said, according to TOI.
