A woman allegedly killed her husband in southwest Delhi’s Dwarka on Tuesday. The matter came to light after the decomposed body of a man was recovered from his rented house in southwest Delhi.
Police said on Wednesday said the prime suspect is the victim’s wife – Kavya -who is missing. According to sources, Sachin had been missing for a few days before the police were alerted to the situation.
“On Tuesday evening, a PCR call was received alleging that a man had been killed by his wife. After reaching the spot, the decomposed body of Sachin was found in a room at Chanakya Place 2 in the Dabri area,” a police officer said.
The police have registered a case against Kavya under Section 302 (murder) of the Indian Penal Code. However, the accused is still missing and a search is underway.
Crime and forensics teams examined the spot and gathered evidence. According to police, prima facie, Sachin was killed by Kavya on the intervening night of August 17 and 18 due to regular domestic violence. Neighbours reported hearing loud arguments between the couple regularly.
The incident has sent shockwaves throughout the local community, and residents have expressed concern over the rising cases of domestic violence.
This is not the first time a case involving domestic violence has come to light in the city. The police have been cracking down on such cases, but it seems that more needs to be done to address the issue.
The case remains under investigation, and the police have called on anyone with information to come forward. The tragic incident serves as a reminder of the importance of addressing domestic violence and protecting victims from such heinous crimes.
In conclusion, it is crucial for individuals to seek help if they are in an abusive relationship. As a society, we must work together to promote a safer and more secure environment for everyone.
