According to various reports, the couple were returning home after returning from a church day after their wedding and were stuck in traffic. The groom – Vijay George (name changed), opened the car door and ran away while the bride was stuck there. His wife tried to chase him down, but was unable to catch up with him.

On March 5, the woman filed a complaint with police. In her complaint, she claimed that the girl he was having an affair with threatened to share intimate photos of them on social media. Fearing this, the groom fled. Two weeks on, police say the groom is nowhere to be found.

The 22-year-old bride said that George is from Chintamani in Chikkaballapur district and assisted her father in running a company in Karnataka and Goa. He was reportedly having an affair while he was running the company's operations in Goa. George allegedly told his wife that he would end his relationship with the girl, but continued to see her.
