The severed head of a woman was found in Maharashtra’s Bhiwandi city. While the police is investigating the case, reports suggest that prima facie it appears that the woman was murdered by her husband and her body was chopped into several parts. The woman’s husband has been arrested.

A domestic dispute appeared to be the reason behind the murder, NDTV reported, citing its sources. The couple used to frequently fight and it is speculated that it was during one such fight that the man must have killed his wife.

The police have launched an investigation to recover the remaining body parts of the woman. Dog squads have also been deployed. The police said a case of murder has been registered.

The woman, whose severed head was found near the Idgah complex, appeared to be around 25 to 28 years old.

The severed head has been sent to the district hospital for post-mortem, Bhoiwada police said.

The incident came after horrific murder cases are being reported across the country.

A 35-year-old woman was set ablaze by her live-in partner in Bengaluru. The man was an alcoholic and was upset after his partner started avoiding him and even became friends with another man. In a similar incident, Uttar Pradesh woman was arrested for allegedly strangling her husband to death in his sleep for neglecting her over his first wife.
