Multiple videos widely shared on social media showed the woman and her lover carrying the body of the woman’s husband on a two-wheeler.
Commenting on the matter further, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP South) Digant Anand confirmed that the deceased’s wife, Gopali Devi, and her lover Deendayal were arrested.
The police also said the incident happened after Dhannalal had confronted his wife about her extra-marital affair.
As the confrontation turned violent, the woman and her lover hit Dhannalal on his head with an iron, which resulted in his death.
“After the deceased objected to the affair, his wife and co-accused Deendayal hit the deceased on his head with an iron rod in rage, which resulted in the deceased losing consciousness and possibly dying on the spot," news agency ANI quoted Anand as saying.
The incident came to light on March 16 after the police were informed about a half-burnt body near a main road. As officials reached the spot, they suspected the victim had been murdered and that his body had been burnt for hiding evidence.
The police also said that the remains of the body were put in a sack and dumped on the road.
The body could be identified after two days. As a team of police was formed to investigate the case, Gopali Devi and Deendayal were arrested.
