Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh): A man allegedly killed his wife and then committed suicide by hanging from a tree at a farm land in Jabalpur, a police official said on Wednesday.

According to police, Punnu Sawarkar Barkade, 50, had a dispute with his wife Mangibai, 45, over some issue late Tuesday night. He attacked her with an axe and escaped from home.
