Husband, in-laws held for murder

PUNE, Oct 11: Aruna Kushaba Bhavari (24) from Ghodegaon village was allegedly murdered by her husband and in-laws only because she could not cook properly.

Aruna was strangled by her husband Kushaba, father-in-law Ramchandra and mother-in-law Sadalubai on the night of October 6, Ghodegaon police said. Later they threw the body into a well to create the impression that Aruna died after falling into it. The trio cremated the body despite the opposition by Aruna’s parents, according to the police.

Kushaba, Ramchandra and Sadalubai were charged with murder after Aruna’s father Kaluram Santu Waje lodged a First Information Report (FIR) against them at the Ghodegaon police station on Friday.
