The couple had married against their families' wishes just six months ago.
After a heated argument on Monday night, Shivam reportedly assaulted Sumana; the next morning, he found her unresponsive but didn't call for help.
Instead, he left for work and returned, staying in the house with her body for two days.

Officers found Sumana's body on the floor with blood from her nose but no other major injuries.

Police have filed a murder case and are still investigating what exactly happened and why.
