In the CCTV footage, initially shared by NDTV, 32-year-old Ekta Gupta can be seen strolling in the gym in a red t-shirt and track pants. She was also holding a water bottle and a gym bag and could also be seen talking to a few people at the gym before leaving the place.
After leaving the gym, Ekta went with Vimal to a secluded place to discuss their relationship. Later, a heated argument ensued between the two which escalated into a physical abuse by Vimal who punched her in the neck, leading to her death.
