**Bengaluru, India –** A 29-year-old woman, Sriganga, was stabbed to death by her husband, Mohanraj, near their son’s school in Bengaluru’s Hebbagodi area on Wednesday morning. The shocking attack, witnessed by several onlookers, occurred as Sriganga was dropping off their six-year-old child.
Police reports indicate that Mohanraj, who had been separated from his wife for eight months following suspicions of infidelity, confronted Sriganga while she was on her way to school. He repeatedly stabbed her in the middle of the road before fleeing the scene. Eyewitnesses immediately rushed Sriganga to a nearby hospital, but she succumbed to her injuries.
Mohanraj, who worked at the same factory as the friend he suspected his wife of having an affair with, was apprehended by police shortly after the incident. He reportedly hadn’t seen his son for several months, contributing to his rage, according to police investigations. The couple had been married for seven years and had a history of marital disputes stemming from Mohanraj’s unfounded suspicions of infidelity two years prior.
Bengaluru Rural Superintendent of Police (SP) S.K. Baba confirmed the arrest and stated that a case has been registered at the Hebbagodi police station. A thorough investigation is underway to gather further evidence and determine the full circumstances surrounding the tragic killing. Mohanraj is facing charges for murder.
