Gurgaon- Wife stabs husband to death with children’s presence at home

In a shocking incident, the wife of a 39-year-old man allegedly stabbed him to death following a domestic quarrel. The police said that the children of the couple likely witnessed the incident as they were present in the house when the alleged murder took place.  

The incident took place in Gurgaon after an argument broke out between the husband and wife. Sachin Kumar was stabbed in the chest, the cops said. Though termed to be an intentional murder by the police, the wife claimed not guilty and said that it was an accident.  

The disturbing event of Friday pushed the children into emotional stress, they said.  

SP, Crime, of Gurgaon Police, Preetpal Singh, said they received a complaint from Jyoti Park Colony. The matter is being probed with appropriate sections added in the case sheet, he said. “The incident was reported from Jyoti Park colony. A domestic quarrel between a couple escalated; the wife stabbed the man with a knife that resulted in his death. We have filed a case under relevant sections of the IPC. The investigation is underway.”

Sachin’s brother, Neeraj, lodged a complaint against Gunjan Kumar, his sister-in-law, for killing his sibling following which, an FIR was registered.  

The victim’s sisters too maintain their stance on the wife stabbing their brother to death. Reshma and Shipli appealed for justice in Sachin’s case and urged the police to immediately arrest Gunjan.  

One of the sisters, Reshma, said, “We demand that the woman be arrested and punished for what she did. We demand justice.” 

She alleged that the 11-year-old daughter of Sachin and Gunjan has been manipulated to speak in favour of her mother. Due to the lessons taught by Gunjan, the girl says that her father got stabbed accidently, she said, adding, “but that’s not true. He was stabbed by his wife.” 

According to the police, when the victim attempted to snatch the knife from his wife, he suffered injuries. Though his brother rushed him to a hospital, he died there of excessive bleeding, they said. 

Speaking about the victim’s nature, a neighbour named Saroj Bhardwaj said, “Sachin was a mild-mannered man. He used to come on Friday evening and would leave by Sunday. During that time, there were fights. We never heard Sachin’s voice, but Gunjan could be heard shouting. We would go to see what’s happening and invariably find the couple arguing in the room.”
