He said when the complainant was about to enter the shop, the accused, who was passing by the complainant’s shop without any provocation, threatened him by saying “I will kill you and go to jail”.
The prosecution said she again intentionally and unlawfully picked a stone and hit the complainant’s head with it, injuring him in the process.
He said the accused person was subsequently arrested and arraigned.
