Arvind Parihar demonstrated possessive control, public character assassination, and instrumental aggression culminating in a fatal shooting.

Relationship Dynamics

Built on mutual non-disclosure of personal histories, the relationship quickly degraded into intense conflict marked by extra-dyadic attachments, police complaints, counter-allegations, and severe trust erosion.
