A mother-in-law’s suspicions began when she found her son-in-law’s male senior colleague sleeping in the marital bed while her daughter was away on an overseas business trip.

The case, shown on Channel A’s Crime Scene’s Business Secrets, involved a husband, his wife and a man described as the wife’s lover living under one roof. The mother-in-law, identified as A, had asked investigators to look into whether her son-in-law, B, had concealed same-sex tendencies and entered a sham marriage with her daughter, C.

I thought my son-in-law had hidden same-sex tendencies and entered a sham marriage with my daughter.

· Mother-in-law AThis was the allegation described in her request for an investigation.

B told A that his close senior colleague had drunk heavily the night before and stayed over. But A remained troubled because the house had a separate guest room and the two adult men had slept in the same bed. Her suspicions deepened after she saw B and the colleague embracing.

The investigation reportedly found that the colleague visited C and B’s home every day. The report then moves to B’s response.

My close senior colleague drank a lot yesterday, so I let him stay over.

· Son-in-law BHe offered this explanation after being found with the colleague in the marital bedroom.
