Anand Srivastava has been taken into custody on suspicion of killing his wife Madhu Srivastava in Gwalior on Thursday morning, during a domestic dispute. The incident occurred in Tyagi Nagar, under Murar police station limits, where the couple lived with their two children, a 14-year-old son and a 16-year-old daughter.
Madhu, who was observing the Karwa Chauth fast, died at the scene after being strangled and struck with a pestle, according to police. Anand called the police and allowed them to enter only after their arrival. Police have registered a murder case, secured the crime scene, and are investigating the motive, with preliminary reports suggesting a domestic quarrel as the cause. The couple married in 2010 and were natives of Bhind.
