The woman, Nanhi Devi, was walking with her mother, Anita Devi, to her parental home when her husband, Akhilesh Kumar, offered to drop them at the Banda-Ghungchai road to find transport.
He first took his mother-in-law on his bike and returned, pretending to pick up his wife. Instead, he and his brother, Arvind Kumar, attacked Nanhi with a sugarcane harvesting knife.
Rajnish, who was driving to Hariyapur, saw his mother waiting by the roadside.
When Nanhi didn't arrive, he headed toward Jallupur and witnessed the attack. He tried to intervene but was too late.
The accused fled after the assault. Police reached the spot and took Nanhi to the nearest govt hospital, where she was declared dead on arrival. Her body was sent for postmortem. Rajnish later filed a complaint, citing family tensions as the motive.
He said Nanhi had been married to Akhilesh for about 20 years, and their relationship had deteriorated after their two daughters, aged 13 and 15, went missing a month ago and remain untraced. Akhilesh blamed Nanhi for their disappearance and killed her over the suspicion, Rajnish alleged.
Ghungchai SHO Prakash Singh said both accused have been charged under relevant sections of the BNS, including Section 101 (murder), and are currently absconding. Efforts are on to arrest them.

A video featuring Telugu actress Kalpika Ganesh allegedly misbehaving at a popular Hyderabad pub is going viral once again, weeks after the incident first made headlines. The altercation reportedly took place on May 29, 2025, at Prism Pub in Gachibowli, where Kalpika was celebrating her birthday. According to the pub staff, the actress created a scene after being denied permission to bring an outside cake into the premises. Things escalated quickly, leading to a police complaint by the management. A case was filed at Gachibowli police station after Kalpika allegedly refused to pay her bill and began verbally abusing staf f. As per the complaint, she reportedly threw plates, damaged property, body-shamed employees, and used inappropriate language. The pub also claimed that she continued to create a disturbance even after police officials arrived. The video from that night, which shows a part of the chaos, has resurfaced on social media and is being widely shared again. Take a look here: The club's management subsequently approached the local authorities. Based on their complaint and with court approval, a case was registered against Kalpika Ganesh on June 10. The charges, filed at the Gachibowli Police Station, include sections 352 (assault or criminal force) and 351(2) (criminal intimidation) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), along with additional relevant provisions. Police officials have confirmed that the matter is under investigation and appropriate legal action will be taken based on further findings. Kalpika Ganesh claimed that she was the one attacked by the staff at the pub. After the incident, she took to Instagram and shared a video showing her arguing with the club's management. The disagreement reportedly began when Kalpika wanted to bring her own birthday cake into the venue. In the video she posted, the pub manager can be heard explaining that they do not offer complimentary cakes. Kalpika responded by saying that other clubs she had visited in the past had no such issue and even provided free cakes. The situation quickly escalated. In the clip, the manager accused Kalpika of causing a scene intentionally and disturbing the environment at the club. Feeling insulted and angry, Kalpika refused to pay the bill. She crumpled it and threw it away, which can also be seen in the video. After the incident, she reportedly filed a complaint with the police, seeking action against the club staff. Sharing the video, Kalpika wrote, 'One of the most worst management even on Google—all reviews suck coz of their inhumanity… police people from Gachibowli station. Mr and Mr Yezas Baba. Have daughters and a wife and are serving the public for nuisance. They were even more worst than the people." Kalpika Ganesh made her debut in Telugu cinema with the 2009 film Prayanam.

Bengaluru psychologist held for smuggling phone into central jail
A 33-year-old prison counsellor has been arrested in Bengaluru for allegedly attempting to smuggle a mobile phone into the Parappana Agrahara Central Prison, said the police Saturday. The accused has been identified as Navyashree K M, who worked as a contract-based psychologist in the prison's hospital wing. According to the FIR, Navyashree attempted to smuggle a Redmi mobile phone into the premises last Friday. She was caught during a routine security check by personnel from the Karnataka State Industrial Security Force (KSISF). A handheld metal detector alerted the guards, prompting a detailed search, during which the phone was reportedly found hidden in her private parts. Prison authorities handed her over to the Parappana Agrahara police, who booked her under Section 323 (Dishonest or fraudulent removal or concealment of property) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and provisions of the Karnataka Prisons Act. A senior police officer confirmed that the device was meant for an undertrial prisoner. Investigators are now attempting to determine who gave her the phone, the identity of the intended recipient, and the nature of her relationship with the inmate. The police are also probing if this incident was part of a larger pattern and whether she had smuggled phones into the jail before. In another case, a 43-year-old domestic worker was arrested for allegedly stealing Rs 67 lakh in cash and valuables worth Rs 70 lakh from her employer's home in Chamarajpet, Bengaluru. The accused, identified as Uma alias Salma, hails from Chamarajanagar and had been employed as a house help for a bedridden woman named Sujatha. She has been booked under BNS Section 306 (theft by servant). According to a complaint filed by Radha, Sujatha's 72-year-old sister, the theft occurred at their residence, where a large sum of cash was stored after the family sold a property near Electronics City. The money was reportedly kept in a locker at Sujatha's house. Uma, who had joined the household two months ago, is believed to have learned about the cash and valuables. Last month, seizing an opportunity when fewer people were at home, she allegedly made away with the loot. The theft came to light when Sujatha's family decided to buy a flat in Chamarajpet and discovered the locker empty. When questioned, Uma initially denied any involvement but later confessed during police interrogation. The police recovered Rs 57 lakh in cash and valuables worth Rs 70 lakh from her possession.
