A man allegedly killed his in-laws with a sharp edged weapon after his wife refused to return to her matrimonial home, police said on Thursday.

Monojit ‘Mango’ Mishra, prime accused in the Kolkata law college rape case, has told police that he believed that the threat to circulate the sex assault video would stop the 24-year-old survivor from approaching cops.

In Bihar’s Aurangabad, a 45-day-old marriage ended tragically with the murder of Priyanshu Kumar Singh, allegedly orchestrated by his wife, Gunja Singh. Motivated by a desire to continue her long-term affair with her maternal uncle, Gunja conspired to eliminate her husband, drawing inspiration from the Meghalaya honeymoon murder case.
