wife of having an extra-marital affair, a 35-year-old man in Nerul allegedly killed her on Sunday night and later surrendered before the police. The man was a delivery executive with a start-up and they had a seven-year old daughter.</p> <p>The accused identified as Sandesh Patil married the victim Pallavi around 10 years ago. However, off late, Patil started suspecting his wife. This led to frequent quarrels between them.</p> <p>“Patil suspected that Pallavi was having an extra-marital affair with someone from the neighbourhood and that led to frequent quarrels between them,” said Sunil Gowli, an inspector from Nerul police station.</p> <p>On Sunday night, they had an argument again on the same issue. In a fit of rage Patil stabbed Pallavi on her chest multiple times with a kitchen knife. Later, he also hit her head with a hammer. “Pallavi bled profusely and lost her consciousness on the spot. She was declared ‘brought dead’ when she was taken to a hospital nearby after some time.” said Gowli.</p> <p>However, the accused Patil himself came to the police station and narrated the whole incident. “After an initial investigation based on his confession, Patil was arrested,” said the official.</p> <p>The police booked the accused under 302 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). He was produced before the judicial court on Monday and has been remanded to police custody.</p></div></div></div><div></div></div><div class="story-element-image"><div><div class="story-element
