A 38-year-old woman was allegedly killed by her husband following a dispute under Budhana police station limits on Sunday, police said.
Vipin Kumar, the accused, attacked his wife Rama on her throat with a spade, killing her on the spot. The incident took place at their residence in Bitawada village, police said, adding Kumar is absconding.
Rama had been living with her parents for a long time and Kumar had brought her back to their house only a few days ago, according to the police.
