Bengaluru: Unable to bear with regular domestic violence, a 25-year-old woman killed her drunkard husband using an iron rod in J.P. Nagar, early Tuesday.
The deceased has been identified as Raju Thimmaiah and the accused is Maheswari.
Both Raju and Maheshwari hail from Ballari and were working as construction workers at an under-construction building in J.P. Nagar Phase-2.
They were staying on the premises along with their son, while their three-year-old daughter lived with her grandparents in Ballari.
The incident took place around 2.30 am at the building site. On Monday night Raju, as usual, came home drunk and picked up a fight with Maheshwari over a petty issue.
Later when Maheshwari was asleep, Raju woke her up and started beating her and then fell asleep.
Around 2.30, Maheshwari decided to end it once and for all and took an iron rod and repeatedly hit on Raju’s head until he died.
She then walked to the police station and surrendered after narrating the ordeal to them. J.P. Nagar police have registered a case of murder and begun investigation.
