A woman allegedly killed her husband while trying to save her son from being thrashed in Ahmedabad on Tuesday.
As per the information, Vijay Yadav and his wife Deepmala Yadav used to live in the Chandlodia area of Ahmedabad. The couple had a son and two daughters. Vijay used to work as a conductor in the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation bus service. However, he had recently lost his job and was staying at home for the past 15 days.
The incident took place on Tuesday morning, when Vijay was watching TV but the channel stopped abruptly. Suspicious that his son stopped the TV channel, he started beating his son. Deepmala intervened to stop her husband from thrashing the boy. It was when Vijay didn't stop that she reached out for a knife lying nearby and stabbed her husband in the chest, following which Vijay fainted on the spot.
He was later rushed to a hospital where the doctors declared him dead.
Police have arrested Deepwala, deceased's wife, in connection with the case. Wadhela Kahena, Police Inspector of Sola High Court Police Station, Ahmedabad, said that at present, the reason behind the murder seems to be a quarrel, but the police will investigate every aspect.
