A 34-year-old man named Priyansh Kumar is accused of killing his wife, Priya Kumar, in their home in Bengaluru. This happened on a Tuesday morning after they'd a big fight about money and cheating.
After the fight, Priyansh is said to have put Priya's body inside a big suitcase and tried to get rid of it. He was caught by the police. This sad event is the 47th case of someone being hurt badly at home in Bengaluru this year. This is a 23% increase compared to last year, which is very worrying.
The police say we need to do more to stop these kinds of things from happening. They want to have better safety programs and help for people facing violence at home.
Neighbors said they heard Priyansh and Priya arguing a lot over the last three months, but nobody told the police.
Priyansh worked at a tech company and told the police he did it. They found out that he took a lot of money from their bank accounts and bought the suitcase two days before the bad event.
Priya was 32 years old and worked as a financial analyst. She'd talked to her friends about having problems in her marriage.
The police have video showing Priyansh struggling with the suitcase early in the morning, which helped them catch him quickly.
Now, he's in police custody and is facing serious charges. The investigation is still going on.
