Police in Muzaffarnagar have detained a 30-year-old lady named Kavita for reportedly strangling her husband, Sanjay Kumar, to death while he was sleeping. The victim’s father told the police about the event, which happened on August 29.
Kavita is said to have confessed to the crime during police questioning, saying that her husband’s “neglect” of her in favor of his first wife was the reason. SHO Dinesh Chand Bhagel said that the person who married Sanjay in 2000 was detained on Saturday. The victim’s first wife lives in Tanda Majra, their home village.
The story shows how serious marital disputes may be and how bad they can end. The event is part of a string of recent complaints of criminality in the area.
