A man in Madhya Pradesh was arrested for murdering a woman after she refused to convert to Islam and marry him.
A 42-year-old man was arrested on charges of killing a 35-year-old woman by slitting her throat and stabbing her multiple times in Madhya Pradesh's Burhanpur district, NDTV reported.
According to the report, the incident happened at the victim's house after the accused barged in, allegedly because she had refused to convert to Islam and marry him.
The accused, identified as Sheikh Raees, allegedly slit the throat of Bhagyashree Namdev Dhanuk and stabbed her multiple times, leaving her dead on the spot.
He was arrested hours later.
In a statement, the woman's sister accused Raees of killing Bhagyashree.
She alleged the accused used to 'grab her hair, beat her, harass her, and had been pressuring her for marriage and religious conversion for a long time," the report quoted her as saying.
'My sister refused, so he entered the house at night and slit her throat," the woman's sister was quoted as saying.
Meanwhile, the accused was charged under various sections of murder and atrocity, and was taken into custody.
In a separate incident, the Gurugram Police arrested a woman and her neighbour, with whom she was allegedly having an affair, along with three others, on charges of murdering her husband and hiding his body.
The victim was identified as Vikram (37), a resident of Dundahera village, who originally hailed from Nawada in Bihar.
Vikram's wife, Soni Devi (35), told the police during questioning that she and the main accused, Ravinder (34), plotted the murder with the help of online content, as her daughter had seen their inappropriate video on his phone and had told her husband about it.
Giving details of the entire episode, the spokesperson said that Soni Devi had filed a complaint at Udyog Vihar police station on July 28 that her husband was missing.
On July 31, the woman filed another complaint in which she alleged that Ravindra, a neighbour, raped her in March 2025 while her husband was away for work.
She claimed that Ravindra had made a video of the incident and threatened that if she told anyone about it, he would make the clip public.
