Chikkamagaluru: Extramarital affair - Doctor kills wife in front of baby, commits suicide


Daijiworld Media Network - Chikkamagaluru (MS)

Chikkamagaluru, Feb 23: In a shocking incident a pregnant woman was found murdered with her throat slit on February 17 in Kadur here. It has now come to light that she was murdered allegedly by her husband, a doctor by profession. The accused later killed himself.

Dr Revanth allegedly killed his wife Kavita as he had an affair with another woman, sources said. He then allegedly committed suicide by coming under a running train, as he was reportedly scared to face the police inquiry. The murder and suicide have resulted in an infant and a toddler being orphaned.

Dr Revanth, a dentist by profession, allegedly had an illicit relation with a woman. His wife Kavita had warned him against it several times. However, he continued his relationship with the said woman. Ultimately he decided to finish off his wife in order to live with his paramour, it is alleged.

Kavita's murder was planned meticulously by her husband five days prior to her killing, sources said. It is learnt that Dr Revanth bought jewellery for his wife on February 17. When the couple reached home after buying jewelry, Dr Revanth stuffed cloth into Kavita's mouth and gave her an injection on her stomach. Kavita fell unconscious within minutes, after which he dragged her to the car shed and slit her throat in front of their six-month-old baby, sources said.

After killing Kavita, Dr Revanth is said to have put doormats around Kavita's body in order to prevent the blood from flowing. When their elder child, who is five years old, asked him about the mother, Dr Revanth allegedly lied that she had gone to the washroom. He then took both his children to his clinic.

Dr Revanth had filed a police complaint stating that some assailants had entered his house and killed his wife and escaped with her jewellery, and also shed tears in front of friends, relatives and the police. However, the post-mortem report brought the heinous act out in open.

The post-mortem report stated that she was given an injection before being murdered. When the police zeroed-in on Dr Revanth, he allegedly killed himself by jumping in front of the train near the Masala Dhaba of Kadur. The tragedy is that both children - one six months old and another five years old - have been orphaned.

    Lust is very dangerous!

    Interesting self questions and answers to be learnt and understood seriously! on emotions, feelings and thoughts by all for attaining a happy and contented life.

    Is Love coming from mind or heart ?? What about peace, joy, self control, faith, humility, gentleness...??

    Is Lust coming from heart or mind ?? What about hatred, jealousy, anger, fear, anxiety, pride, greed ...??

    Always hear, action and live from heart and not from mind to lead a happy life. Also

    1 John 4:8 But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.

    After killing his wife now he enjoys with another woman his paramour. Though he is an extramarital affair why kill his wife and he himself committed suicide. Now children have become orphans. Is there any meaning in it. RIP

    I have said this before...and I will say it again...

    If you are not married yet, wait until your girlfriend turns 40, and then get married.

    The complications arising out of a marriage are just mind-boggling...

    It requires the strength of a Samson and the wisdom of a Solomon to survive a couple of years in marriage these days.

    Your theory works if there are more than one sons in a family. A family with just one male child will not allow him to remain unmarried till 40 or above. Secondly, girls will be selective when comes to a groom above 40.

    Forget it ! You stay single as long as you want.

    What "pottu" philosophy is your Mangalorean? After 40...men are saints. They don't keep paramours? Ladies don't look for other men after 40?? How many examples you want ladies and men marry after 50/60/80 ?? Forget your 40...Recently... Mother of a bride and father of a bridegroom ran and stayed together before the marriage of this couple... Kuch bhi.... 40/60 policy 😡😡😡

    I cannot understand the ruling of Supreme court. Extra marital affair is not unlawful. But one can get divorce on the basis of extra marital affair.
    If it is not a crime, then why the courts allowed for divorce?.
    Is there any meaning left for marriage if extra marital affair is not a crime?

    What a shame? and what a tragedy!!!
    We as human beings enter into a partnership called family upon mutual agreement. Prior to that when we come to this earth as individual souls. we become part of the family. And when we get married again we join someone else, technically we come as individuals and go back as individual souls.

    If someone is not happy with his wife/husband or see some transgressions, then they must divorce and live separately. Just because someone married, it does not mean husband has bought his wife and vice versa. Killing wife/husband/children is the most heinous crime for which there is pay back for the person who killed, both in this life and life hereafter, Western society has better arrangements in such scenarios, when they have irreconcilable differences they divorce.

    And in this case both are educated and its utter stupidity of this fellow to kill his wife & children,

    The beauty that she is, it should have been her that having an affair. Who got this couple matched ? A beautiful creation of God and a mother of two small angels is no more to this world just because the man couldn't cherish the gem he earned in marriage.

    RIP Kavitha, may God grant peaceful rest to your soul and a loving abode to the children you left behind.

    Deshbhakth mangalore,your theory or question matches to the old saying.when couples are happy then it is their luck.when goes bad or seperate who was match maker..No sense in it.One has to adjust to each other,understand the meaning of family and partner.Here this doctor must have misunderstood the meaning and took what available in his surrounding ,and last let fallen or children on the street.Very tragic.Wife ,lover,two children and a wife so pretty ,and expecting too .He killed her .why this heinous crime?could have gone to his lover .Must have thought as doctor noone will doubt.Here forensic has succeeded.Last got cold feet and suecide was his only way to be out of shameful act.Poor children ,orphans.Even family or someone looks after them,they will never have their parents.miss mostly mother .Heartfelt sympathy to family .may her soul rest in peace.Lover too should have thought before that she split a family and indirect cause of these orphan kids.

    Husband cheated wife. But it is the wife who faces the the repercussion and gets brutally murdered.
    If she has had gone to court for divorce, she might have been asked to prove the extra marital affair of her husband; which she could not have succeeded to do. So she had no option but the face her fate in this way.
    The core reason for this fate- Difficulty posed by the current rules of both judiciary and the society in getting the divorce.
    May be many people will not agree with my view. But I am sure that the parents of Kavita would surely agree.
