While she told him during a meeting on Dec 23 that year that she would continue seeing him, she later broke up with him over a phone call.
Ahmed convinced her to meet him again seven days later and they had sex at a hotel.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Hay Hung Chun told the court earlier that Ahmed repeatedly threatened to kill Ms Nurhidayati if she did not end her relationship with Mr Hanifa.
Shouldn't it be "in" instead?
Thanks!
@tanguatlay,
Using "at" emphasizes the location of the act, whereas using "in" would emphasize the act itself with the location being a descriptor or modifier.
@InfraBlue,
The cleaner moaned, 'They had sex on the escalator in the lobby at the hotel and I was up and down all day.'
