In another incident, a 28-year-old man is alleged to have killed his wife during a dispute in Nagpur, according to the police report on Wednesday.
The accused husband is currently on the run following the incident that occurred in the Shitala Mata Square area on Tuesday afternoon, as confirmed by an official from the Sakkardara police station, stated a report in PTI.
The victim, identified as Anusiya, also known as Dinya Shyamkishor Gajam (24), and the accused, Shyamkishor Tejlaal Gajam, had recently relocated to Nagpur from Balaghat in Madhya Pradesh. Both were employed as labourers at government quarters in the city, the official stated.

On Tuesday evening around 8 pm, a heated argument escalated, leading to Shyamkishor allegedly striking her on the head with an iron rod, resulting in her immediate death.
Subsequently, the accused fled from the scene, as reported by the police official. Further investigations are ongoing, with Sakkardara police having filed a case under section 302 of the Indian Penal Code.
