In Cachar district, Assam, Beru Miya Laskar, a 28-year-old carpenter, was arrested for allegedly murdering his wife, Rabiya Begum, who was seven months pregnant. The incident occurred after a dispute over Beru's extramarital affair. Rabiya's family reported that Beru called them to inform them of her critical condition, but upon arrival at Silchar Medical College and Hospital, they found she had already died. They noticed signs of strangulation on her neck and injuries consistent with physical abuse. Rabiya's cousin stated that she had previously suffered abuse from Beru and had left him multiple times, only to return after family intervention. Beru, however, claims that Rabiya committed suicide due to her distress over his affair. The police have registered a case under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) for murder and are continuing their investigation, having recovered digital evidence related to the case. The investigating officer indicated that the evidence may lead to further charges.
