Indore : A squabble between a man and his wife escalated into a full-scale brawl and resulted in the death of woman and serious injuries to her husband. The man was arrested and sent to the hospital for treatment while wife’s body was sent for an autopsy.

According to Shahsikant Chourasia, TI, Heera Nagar Police, following a call about a body of a woman lying in New Heera Nagar on Saturday morning, he led a police team to the spot.

The police team found the body of Sunita alias Rani (35) wife of Ramchandra Khati. The body had several injuries and marks on her neck indicating that she might have been strangled. Ramchandra was also in the house with serious wounds on his body and bleeding.

Household stuff was strewn about on the floor while mattress and pillows were torn apart. Blood was also found on the floor and the bed.

Rani’s sister Sharda told the police that the couple had gotten into an argument on Friday night and they fought through the night and during the fight Ramchandra strangled Rani and killed her in a fit of rage.

Sharda also told the police that Sunita was slightly retarded and had left her first husband and married Ramchandra. However, Sunita alleged that she was not given food and was made to work in the fields of the family in Sehore.

Finally, the couple moved to the city and Sharda got them one-room accommodation in the same building. However, the move did not help much as the couple fought regularly which culminated in the killing of Sunita on Saturday night.
