A 42-year-old woman was found murdered in her home in Maharashtra's Thane district. The police suspect her husband's role in the crime.

The woman was apparently killed with a laundry bat on the intervening night of Wednesday and Thursday, an official said. The police are looking for her husband, PTI reported. Citing the preliminary investigation, the police said the couple, who lived at Jamghar of Wada taluka, often fought as the man would cast doubts on her character.
