According to the prosecution, Eltaj Chalabiyev drank alcohol at the wedding party he attended in the village on the day of the incident. While standing in front of the cave, he saw his companion Muraz Ibrahimov leaving the wedding party with his wife. The accused then followed them and threatened them with a knife that he was carrying down the street 60 meters from the cave and cursed them. As a result, Eltaj stabbed him to death in front of his wife.
