The alleged incident took place on November 2, 2026 at Essen Springdale in Kochi. The doctor was reportedly asked to visit the apartment after being told that one of Athulya Chandra's relatives was unwell and required medical assistance. Since he already knew the actress, he reportedly agreed to visit the flat at her request. However, upon arriving, he found nearly 12 people inside.
