A 25-year-old woman from Malabar Hill was allegedly strangled to death with a towel by her husband on Wednesday, during an argument over her jewellery and suspicion of infidelity.
The couple –Sumeet Vedwanshi, 30, and Yogita – resided in Shivaji Nagar, near Kambala Hill High School. Sumeet had previously pawned Yogita’s jewellery to a friend named Abhishek. Frequent arguments over this issue and suspicion about Yogita’s fidelity often led to disputes.
On the day of the incident, a similar argument broke out, which escalated into violence. In a fit of rage, Sumeet assaulted Yogita and strangled her with a towel, according to the statement given by her mother, Laxmi Suresh Nandal, 45. A case has been registered under section 103(1) (murder) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
