A woman in Haryana’s Kurukshetra has been arrested following the discovery of her husband's mutilated body, police reported. The victim, identified as Rajesh, lived with his wife, Vimla Devi, in a rented residence near Raj Palace on Pehowa Road. The couple reportedly had an altercation around 5pm prior to the incident. A nearby landlord, Rinku, heard the couple arguing and investigated when he reached the property's terrace, he found Rajesh lying on the ground with severe injuries to his abdomen.
Vimla allegedly attempted to place her husband's intestines in a bag before jumping from the terrace, sustaining injuries during the fall and being taken to a hospital. Police await her statement to establish the sequence of events and potential motive behind the killing.
