“I have never had peace since the day I was arrested. Never in my wildest imagination did I envisage I would kill a human being. I see his face in my dream every night. At times I would be scared to sleep.”
“I have been begging God for forgiveness. This is not what I wanted for myself. I don’t know what fate holds for me.”, she said.
