NEW DELHI: A man has been held for killing his wife on suspicion of infidelity. The accused had killed his wife a few weeks ago and made it appear as an accident. He had also taken her to the hospital; but it turned out later that the woman had died of bullet wounds.
Amit, a resident of Tajpur village in Chhawla, killed his wife Shalu with a countrymade pistol, cops said. He told police that he suspected Shalu of having an affair with a youth. A friend had gifted a fridge to his wife a few days ago and this was the trigger for the murder, police said.
"On April 10, information was received from a hospital that a woman admitted after a road accident had died," said A K Ojha, additional commissioner of police. Autopsy revealed that Shalu had died after a bullet injury.
Shalu's father suspected foul play as the couple had developed a strained relation. He alleged thatAmit would often beat up Shalu.
"On April 4, a friend of Shalu gifted her a refrigerator. However, it became a bone of contention between the couple," said Ojha. On April 10, Amit urged his wife to accompany him till a hospital and Shalu agreed. "On the way, Amit shot Shalu and after confirming her death, he threw the weapon in the bushes. He then concocting the accident story," Ojha added.
