A woman killed her husband by crushing his head with a stone as he registered all his eight acres of land in the name of his two sons from his first wife. The incident occurred at Hilalpur in Vaijapur tehsil on Monday night. The deceased has been identifed as Sudam Raghu Zinzurde (55) and the accused as Kamalbai Sudam Zinzurde. The police have arrested Kamalbai.

Police said, the body of Sudam was found in a well in front of his house on Monday. As there were injured on his body, the police got suspicious of a murder. Shiur police station API Sandeep Patil investigated and found that it was not an accident but a murder. The police arrested Kamalbai on suspicion and during interrogation she confessed that she has murdered him by crushing his head with a stone.
