Man bangs wife’s head against wall, kills her

Ghaziabad: A man in his late 30s was arrested on Sunday for allegedly killing his wife by banging her head several times on a wall in their house in Mirza Garden Colony of Loni on Saturday evening.
Police said the accused, Raeesuddin, was in an inebriated condition when he committed the murder.
Raeesuddin, a daily wager, had married Shamshadi (30) a year back after giving divorce to his first wife. He has three children aged between two and eight years.
According to the police, Raeesuddin was an alcoholic and it led to frequent fights between the couple.
A similar argument had ensued on Saturday evening after Raeesuddin came home drunk, but in a fit of rage, Raeesuddin banged Shamshadi’s head multiple times on the wall and then fled after she fell unconscious.
Police said that the children were playing outside the house when Shamshadi was killed. When they came home and found their mother lying in a pool of blood, they informed their neighbours, who in turn informed the police.
A police team arrived soon, along with circle officer of Loni, Raj Kumar Pandey, and SHO Sanjay Kumar Pandey. The police sent the body for an autopsy.
“The accused has been booked for murder and was arrested on Sunday. We are trying to ascertain the exact reason which resulted in such a heinous crime,” said the SHO.
