Hyderabad: In a shocking incident, an auto-rickshaw driver, Vijay Kumar, was arrested for allegedly beheading his wife, Pushpalata, on Tuesday, January 17. The Abdullapurmet police stated that Vijay suspected his wife of infidelity, leading to this horrifying crime.
The accused had carefully planned the crime and invited Pushpalata to his sister’s place under the guise of cleaning. Vijay had reportedly purchased a knife a day before, indicating preplanning.
After taking Pushpalata to his sister’s new government double-bedroom home in Hyderabad, Vijay stabbed her to death, severed her head and kept it aside before walking out of the house in bloodstained clothes.
