MUMBAI: A 27-year-old man from Dharavi, Rahul Jaiswal, has been arrested for allegedly beating his wife to death and making it appear like an accident. The post-mortem and doctor’s opinion paved the way for the investigation.
Last week, his wife, Roshni (22), was taken to Sion hospital with severe injuries and in an unconscious state. Rahul, who had accompanied her, told doctors that she had fallen from the mezzanine floor and fell unconscious. She was declared dead after a while. However, the post-mortem report suggested that the deceased had died due to internal injuries and hence doctors examined her wounds and raised suspicion that she may have been beaten up.
