Tragic family dispute ends in double homicide
In Jharkhand's Giridih district, a late-night argument turned deadly when Chotelal Hansda, 30, allegedly stabbed his wife Meena Murmu, 25, at her parents' house.
The couple had been married for eight years but were living apart due to ongoing issues.
Hansda reportedly went there hoping to patch things up and bring Meena home, but things escalated quickly.
Police have recovered both bodies
After the stabbing, Hansda tried to run but was caught by Meena's family and local villagers, who then beat him to death.
Police have recovered both bodies and sent them for post-mortem exams. An official murder case has been registered at Mufassil Police Station.
Investigators are now gathering witness statements and piecing together what led to this tragic chain of events—including the mob violence that followed the initial crime.
