The police arrested a 34-year-old man for killing his 29-year-old wife in Kurla (West) after they had an argument on Thursday. According to the police, the man would often doubt his wife's character, a Mumbai Mirror report read.

The accused, Dinesh, stabbed his wife, Sheetal Ingle, multiple times on the neck and stomach in a fit of rage. The couple has two children, a five-year-old girl and a seven-year-old boy, the police said.

Sheetal had earlier gone missing and was traced by the police after Dinesh approached them. The report said Sheetal was staying with her husband only for the sake of her children. After the incident, the neighbours nabbed Dinesh and handed him over to the police.
