Police in Chhattisgarh’s Surguja district say a man allegedly killed his 23-year-old pregnant wife by inserting a hacksaw blade into her private part during a severe assault. Multiple outlets report that the incident occurs while their four-year-old daughter is present. The woman is described as about three months pregnant and is said to have suffered multiple injuries.
According to police accounts referenced by the outlets, the accused later confesses to the assault. One report also states that after the woman dies, the man flees the hospital and his wife’s body is shifted to the mortuary.
Post-mortem findings are cited as key to the investigation. One source reports that the examination describes multiple injuries and recovery of an approximately 10-inch object, while also indicating the victim was pregnant—an aspect the husband did not mention to doctors. Another report includes the claim that the accused offered an explanation for the injuries that police did not accept. The case is under investigation, with authorities relying on medical findings and police statements.
