In a shocking incident in Kampur in Assam's Nagaon district, a man allegedly killed his wife and her suspected lover after catching them together in their rented house.

According to police reports, a violent altercation broke out, during which Jaykant allegedly attacked and killed both Gita and Bhaskar by repeatedly beating them with a rod. Following the incident, Jaykant Das surrendered at the Kampur police station and was taken into custody.
According to Pratidin Time the police arrived at the crime scene and initiated an investigation. The bodies of the deceased have been sent to Nagaon for post-mortem examination.
