Mumbai: A 28-year-old woman and her 24-year-old boyfriend have been booked for allegedly killing the woman’s husband in Bhiwandi. The body of the husband was discovered from under the bed at their residence on Sunday. As per Shantinagar police in Bhiwandi, the incident might have taken place either on Wednesday evening or Thursday morning.
