Barabanki: In the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, a wife killed her husband over a minor dispute over giving gifts.
A 35-year-old man was allegedly tortured to death by his wife’s family because he wanted to gift his sister a gold ring and a television on her wedding, NDTV reported. But his wife was angry with him.
Chandra Prakash Mishra was killed by his wife and in-laws, police said. This incident is reported from a village near Barabanki in Uttar Pradesh.
Nand was to be married on April 26 and his brother wanted to gift his sister a gold ring and a television. However, Chandra Prakash’s wife Chabi was upset about this, which led to a rift between the two. Enraged, the wife called her brothers to “teach Chandra Prakash a lesson”, who beat the brother-in-law with sticks for about an hour, injuring him severely.
He was rushed to the hospital where he succumbed to his injuries during treatment. Police said that five persons including the wife and her brothers have been arrested and a case has been registered and further investigation is underway.
