They appeared for counselling and things got a little better," he added.
He said the duo moved to Dubai one-and-a-half years ago, the report stated. "He (husband) had taken a huge loan and they were under financial pressure.

We decided to keep the children with us because of his abuse. But we did not expect that he would kill her," he said.
