Ochee and Sofia are best friends. Ochee was the maid of honour for Sofia during herwedding. They shared many stories between them and always confided in each other. Sofiatold Ochee that she suspected her husband, Gary is cheating on her. One day, Ocheereceived a Whatsapp message from another good friend, Hani, stating that Gary, Sofia's husband was seen holding hands with Nik at Zara Private Karaoke Centre ('ZPKC'). In fact, this is not the first time Ochee had been informed of Gary's misbehaviour with Nik. Ocheequickly informed Sofia about the messages that she had received. Later, Sofia, Ochee andHani went to ZPKC in order to confront Gary and Nik.

Consumed with anger, Sofia, Ochee and Hani barged into the karaoke centre anddemanded that they be told of the room number booked by Gary. Tasha, the girl manningthe registration counter informed them that ZPKC is a private centre and that she will neitherdisclose any information nor allow non-paying customers into the karaoke room area. A clearsign was visible stating that it is a private area and trespassers are not allowed.

Sofia was hysterical and jumped over the registration counter. She pulled the computer towards her and searched for Gary's room. She browsed all the personal information ofZPKC's customers and managed to find the room number. Sofia then threw the keyboard towards Tasha, hitting Tasha on her head. The keyboard was broken.

Hani, who is familiar with the karaoke centre, led them to Gary's room. She kicked theroom's door wide open for Sofia and Ochee to enter. Sofia immediately attacked Nik with herhandbag and threatened to pour acid on Nik's face. Nik was stunned. Gary tried to protectNik but was punched by Ochee. Seeing this, Nik pushed Sofia away and shouted at her,calling her 'a crazy woman'. Nik later turned to Hani who was recording the whole incidentusing her handphone. Nik grabbed the phone and threw it away, causing the phone to breakinto pieces. Five security guards came to the room upon hearing all the commotion, andmanaged to calm the situation. Sofia, Ochee and Hani was told to leave the centre. Beforeleaving, Ochee said to Gary, "If it were not for these security guards, I would have killedyou!"

Under Law of Tort in Malaysia, advise Gary, Nik, Tasha, Sofia, ZKPC, Ochee and Hani of their rights and liabilities.
