The sanctity of marriage, once considered a bond for seven lifetimes, seems to be eroding. A shocking incident from Samastipur, Bihar, highlights the breakdown of marital fidelity. A woman, despite having a husband and two children, engaged in an illicit affair. When her husband discovered the affair, a horrific crime was committed. The woman, along with her lover, murdered her husband and disposed of the body.
Authorities acted swiftly, arresting the woman and her lover. The incident occurred in the Lagunia Raghukant area. The victim, Sonu Kumar, a 30-year-old auto driver, lived with his wife, Smita, and their two children.
Sonu worked tirelessly to provide for his family, unaware of his wife’s clandestine activities. Smita had hired a tutor, Hariom Kumar, for her children. Their relationship soon turned into an affair. One day, Sonu caught them in a compromising situation, leading to heated arguments between the couple.
Sonu’s father, Tuntun Jha, reported that Sonu returned home late one Friday night. The next morning, Sonu was found dead. Following Tuntun’s complaint, Smita was arrested. Investigations revealed that the couple had a history of conflict, including a prior intervention by a local panchayat where a bond was signed.
