UP nurse kills husband, teen daughter's statement leads to arrest
New Delhi: A nurse in Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad was Sunday arrested after a 13-year-old girl revealed to the police that her mother killed her father.
The mother had said that her husband died due to suicide, the police said.
A man with whom she was allegedly in a relationship was also arrested for allegedly having a role in the crime.
Kavita, who worked as a nurse, had allegedly murdered her husband after a fight on Nov 29.
She then took his body to the hospital where she worked and told the doctors that her husband had hanged himself from a fan, using a blanket.
The hospital followed the procedure and informed the police.
A post-mortem was conducted on the body, which revealed choking marks around the neck, leading to suspicion regarding the death.
The police found out about Kavitha's role when they questioned her daughter.
The 13-year-old told police that she had witnessed Kavita pressing down on her father's mouth through a window.
Based on the information, Kavita was questioned and arrested.
