Tragic Domestic Dispute Leads to Wife's Murder
Domestic Violence Incident Unfolds
A husband revealed that his wife had a habit of chewing gutkha, which he disapproved of. However, the police suspect that jealousy may have been the real motive behind the murder. During questioning, the husband mentioned that his wife worked in various households and often spoke on her mobile phone, which led to frequent arguments.
Hemant, the husband, allegedly killed his wife by strangling her with a dupatta and then fled the scene, locking her body in a room. This was the woman's second marriage, having divorced her first husband, while Hemant's first wife had passed away. He is known to have a drinking problem, which his wife opposed. She was the primary breadwinner of the family.
In a fit of rage during an argument, Hemant reportedly strangled his wife. After realizing what he had done, he panicked and locked her body away before escaping. He later called his family to inform them about the incident. While he claims that his wife's gutkha consumption was the reason for the murder, the police find this explanation hard to believe. Further questioning revealed that he had suspicions about her fidelity.
Attempts at Reconciliation
Frustrated by constant bickering, the woman had left her husband's home and returned to her parental house. Hemant had pleaded with the local council just ten days prior to bring her back home. Despite this, disputes between the couple continued.
