Rakshit Chaurasia, a fourth-year law student at MS University, crashed his friend’s Volkswagen Virtus sedan into three vehicles late on March 12, killing one woman.
A 55-year-old man has allegedly bludgeoned his wife to death over suspicion of her having extramarital affairs in Noida, officials said on Saturday. According to the police, the accused, Nurullah Haider, hit his wife, Asma Khan, on her head with a hammer during an argument, resulting in her death.
The incident took place in Noida’s Sector 15 area on Friday.
The 42-year-old victim was a software engineer and worked at a private company in Noida’s Sector 62. She lived in Delhi earlier and was an engineering graduate from Jamia Millia Islamia University. The accused is from Bihar and was also an engineering graduate. However, he is currently unemployed.
The couple married in 2005 and have two children – a son and a daughter. While their son is an engineering student, their daughter studies in Class 8.
Officials said that the couple’s son first reported the incident to the police by dialing 112 – an emergency response number in India.
“As soon as we received the information, our team and forensic experts reached the spot. We have taken the accused into custody and sent the victim’s body for post-mortem. Further investigation is underway,” Deputy Commissioner of Police Rambadan Singh said.
Preliminary investigation revealed that Haider had been suspecting his wife of having extramarital affairs.
“Their daughter informed me about the incident this morning. They were fighting for several days. But we did not expect that he would take such a step,” the victim’s brother-in-law said.
US President Donald Trump on Friday posted a video purportedly showing dozens of Huthi fighters being killed in an American strike on Yemen, adding the comment “oops.”
Resembling images shot from military drones or other loitering aircraft, the black-and-white footage Trump posted to his Truth Social network shows several dozen human figures from an almost vertical angle.
“These Houthis gathered for instructions on an attack,” Trump wrote in an accompanying text, using an alternate spelling for the Yemeni rebel group.
These Houthis gathered for instructions on an attack. Oops, there will be no attack by these Houthis!

American forces have carried out major raids on Yemen in recent weeks in response to the group’s attacks on Red Sea shipping.
Gathered in a loose oval along a road, the people in the video are superimposed with a gun camera-style crosshair.
A few seconds in, a bright flash appears in the middle of the scene, followed by billowing smoke.
The footage cuts to a wider shot showing a column of smoke over the apparent impact site and several vehicles parked further up the road.
The camera then cuts closer again to show a broad crater at the point of impact. No bodies are readily identifiable.
“Oops, there will be no attack by these Houthis,” Trump wrote.
“They will never sink our ships again!”
Officials and media outlets belonging to the Huthis have reported multiple deaths in dozens of strikes this week that they blamed on the United States.
The group has attacked commercial and military shipping in what it says is a response to Israel’s campaign in the Gaza Strip.
Washington said Wednesday it would send a second aircraft carrier, the USS Carl Vinson, to join the USS Harry S. Truman in the Middle East “to continue promoting regional stability, deter aggression, and protect the free flow of commerce in the region.”
