A 27-year-old Parbhani man who strangled his pregnant wife but told his friend she died by suicide was nabbed from Dahisar by the Government Railway Police (GRP) recently.

The accused, Umesh Magar, killed his wife, Puja (23), but told his friend, Ganesh Pitale, that she died by suicide. He sought Pitale’s help to pack the body in a sack and dump it in a canal, before they boarded a bus for Mumbai, stated a report in The Times of India.
