Naresh Mahali, a resident of Vasai, is unemployed and would drink, abuse and assault his wife every day. On November 10, a drunken Mahali entered the house in the afternoon and again started abusing and beating up his wife. Fed up, the woman took her two kids and went to her sister's home. According to a senior cop, the wife left the place fearing that he would beat her up again once he came back in the evening.
