Bengaluru: Husband kills wife for alleged relationship with another man


Daijiworld Media Network - Bengaluru (MS)

Bengaluru, Jul 21: A man who suspected that his wife was having a relationship with another man and strangled her over an argument on the same issue. This incident occurred on the night of Thursday, July 19 at Laggere near Rajagopalanagar in the north part of the city.

The deceased is identified as Soumya (29), wife of Jagadish (46), the alleged killer.

Both Soumya and Jagadish are said to be natives of Mysuru and had been living in Bengaluru since one year. They have a five-year-old son, who is left behind at Mysuru in his grandmother's care.

Jagadish had a doubt in his mind that Soumya is having an extra-marital relationship with one of her friends and this led to frequent quarrels between the couple. On the night of Thursday, it is alleged that Jagadish had a heated argument with Soumya over the long hours when she was hooked on to her mobile texting and talking.

Jagadish hit Soumya's face which made her go off-balance and she fell on the floor. Then he throttled her neck with his foot, as per the information given by the police.

After the act, Jagadish walked into the police station and handed himself over to the police. The police who rushed to the house of the couple shifted the victim to the nearby hospital but she was declared brought dead.

Jagadish has been remanded to judicial custody by the magistrate.

    m surprised and baffled by the comments here blaming husband for all the bitterness . We must understand times have changed and women r no more saints . So better if we stop empowering them and restrict pesudo freedom , be careful about her adventures outside home . Conditioning the homemaker psyche in women now a days is must . Most husbands think its cool to send wife to work , later they go depression when reality strikes . M not blaming anyone , tgere r some real good women also out there .

    And some r giving opinion tgat he should have divorced her , then she would have ate all his money / assets as alimony merying around with bf , and plus false ioc 498A and may even be martial rape clause on husband !!. Killing is never justified but its lesser of worse decision he took

    "Jagadish had a doubt in his mind that Soumya is having an extra-marital relationship with one of her friends and this led to frequent quarrels "

    That in itself is the answer to the crime. He should have sought legal advise and or other solution rather than taking revenge. Wife is gone and Jagdish has to spend few years in th jail and cry for his dealy act.

    Here there is a big age difference of nearly 18 years and it is natural to go after another man when her husband fails to fulfill her sexual desires. So it is not advisable and think before getting married to a younger woman

    @john , mangalore . R u crazy ?! , age difference has nothing to do with relationships , hqve seen many successful relationships with huge gaps . Moreover , 20 year age difference is ideal since women age faster than men , ie women hit menopause at 45 and men can procreate upto 90 years .

    Nawaz, I agree with your comment which goes like this... "better to stay apart and lead a peaceful life". Procedures of Divorce should be easy.. Very right. But, what I am trying to say is, killing her just because he doubts is very wrong.

    Why a woman develops illegal relationship? When she doesn't get required respect in the house by her spouse. When he doesn't care for her in her illness/depression/worries etc etc.. When there's no loving..
    Only doubting on every single thing, when husband looks at her just as an object of pleasure, when he doesn't provide minimum pocket money for her petty expenses and so many times no adjustments towards food/outing etc..when wife supports her husband going outside to work for lifting up his family through financially, even husband can lend her a helping hand in the house hold activities

    One small example I would like to give here I know a young lady whose husband is abroad and this girl has to send her cut nails to her husband every two months by post. She is not supposed to apply nail polish...doubt/suspicion is very very dangerous and it's brain eating Nawaz. Not only this man there are so many around us
    Some men those who are abroad on their visit to their house, they search each and every bag, cupboard, shoe rake, loft, kitchen shelves and to my utter surprise they even search the waste papers from the garbage plastic that's gathered to burn.
    Now you Answr me is it double standard?
    Such explanations are not required for the educated people. Just come out of your shell and mingle with people... Leave that thinking that woman is just made to satisfy her man.. (comment said by John, Japan) this reply is applicable to him also. See both the sides of a coin. Try to find out the loopholes.. A girl leaves every thing and joins husband and his family

    I easily mingle with people and have so many friends from from all walks of life. May be you are more educated than me, but that rarely makes any difference.

    A WOMEN HAVE FREEDOM TO USE ELECTRONIC MEDIA .THERE IS NO PROOF IS GIVEN BY HER HUSBAND THAT SHE HAD AN ILLEGAL RELATION. IF A MAN GETTING DOUBT WITH HIS WIFE IT PROVES THAT HE IS NOT A PERFECT HUSBAND.AND IF A MAN IS A GOOD HUSBAND THEN ANY WOMAN CANT KEEP AN ILLEGAL RELATION.AND HE HAS NO RIGHT TO KILL HIS WIFE.

    Why did he marry a small girl who should be the age of his daughter or at least younger sister. Definitely he didn't marry her out of true love but for other things...he should have been married a lady equivalent of his age or two three years younger to him or older to him.

    It's strange. You only started with the topic of education and now you yourself are asking me to keep education aside.

    Just give explanation and trustworthy information of how Jagadish is unfaithful to his wife. Before that, define what is unfaithfulness. It appears as if either you don't know the meaning of unfaithfulness or you are pretending as if you don't know.

    Meaning of unfaithfulness is "engaging in sexual relations with a person other than one's regular partner in contravention of a previous promise or understanding."

    @Achu mangalore,it is not prooved that she was unfaithful to him.He only doubted .Because she was more occupied with her mobile than her husband.It is quite understable.but no reason to kill her.He could have clarified first ,before attaching her.Sure husbands dont tolerate when wife acts this way.Same way wives too are jealous when hubby flirts with other women in front of him.He could have simply get out of house or a divorce could help both.Now that small boy has no mother.would he understand his fathers action why he lost his mother?May her soul rest in peace.Heartfelt sympathy to the family.Would this boy happy if his father marrys a second time ,and a new stepmother treat him like a own mother?But first he has to get his punishment before everything.

    Its absolutely right from your side to say that he has no right to kill her.

    But, You also said that- He is unfaithful to her. What is this?. Did angels come in your dreams to tell you about his unfaithfulness? What is the proof you have?

    At one instance you talk about inequality rendered to women; but when it comes to justice, according to you;-
    “Women are innocent until proven guilty” but “Men are guilty until proven innocent”. Why this double standard?

    Most of the time, when a married woman has an affair, she generally falls for a younger person. Let us assume, her lover is around 23. We, very well know in simple arithmetic also, that 23 goes into 29, twice the time 46 goes into 29. Yes, age difference can be one of the reasons.

    This is why I always argue that divorce should not be made difficult. These are the consequences of relationship out of social compulsion.
    The marriage is considered holy only if both the partners are dedicated towards their relationship and there is no point in forced relationship.
    Better stay apart and try to spend a peaceful life.

    Couples need to get separated first. At times they realize their mistake during separation & get together . If the couples still opts for divorce even after separation , then getting divorce should be easy. But in anyways triple talaq is not the option.

    @Maria,
    Of course triple talaq is not at all the option. That's why it's ordered in Quran, the best solution, to give almost 3 months time before the divorce, where 3 talaqs are given in each month. And in between each talaq, the couple is given enough time to understand the real necessity of divorce and also to understand the importance of marriage and realize their mistakes, if any. There is even a process of reconciliation in these 3 months where family members of the couple and religious heads try to convince the couple to avoid divorce, if possible. If nothing works out, then comes final talaq.
