One evening, a family was resting in their home when they heard stones being thrown at their house. The owner of the house recognized the man throwing stones to be his brother-in-law. Thus, the father went outside and asked his brother-in-law to stop throwing stones as he was worried his daughter would get hurt. The brother-in-law’s live-in partner, then began screaming. Worried that the couple would cause trouble, the father told his friend, who was in his house that it would be best to avert the further trouble. The friend, thus, went to the home of the brother-in-law to talk. Instead, the brother-in-law came out of his house with a samurai sword and immediately hacked the friend with it. In the background, the live-in partner was screaming “kill him, kill him!” The assault resulted in the death of the friend.

Nevertheless, the brother-in-law insisted that he was only acting in self-defense. In his version of the story, it was the victim who came to the brother-in-law’s house, throwing stones at the house and challenging him to come out. When the brother-in-law opened the gate to his house, the friend immediately tried to hurt him with a bolo. Only then did he retrieve his samurai sword in his house to protect himself and his partner.
