Angry husband beheads his wife over morning tea

In a fit of irrational rage, a husband allegedly severed the skull of his wife over the 'delayed' arrival of his morning tea.

Police say the suspect, identified only as Dharamveer, fatally stabbed his 50-year-old wife Sundari in their residence in the village of Faljagadh, Uttar Pradesh, close to the capital city of Delhi.

Indian media report that the 52-year-old daily wage labourer beheaded his wife after stabbing her 15 times with the sword while she waited too long to prepare his drink.

A few minutes after his wife, who had already begun brewing the brew, awoke, the husband, according to the local police chief, promptly inquired where it was.

Following the explanation that the preparation would continue for an additional ten minutes, Dharamveer became enraged and hurriedly retrieved a weapon, allegedly employing it to slash his wife as she perched over the stove.

According to a statement provided to the Times of India by Police Superintendent Vivek Yadav, Sundari arose at 6am and promptly commenced the daily task of preparing tea.

He stated that Dharamveer summoned her for a cup of tea when he awoke a few minutes later, while the couple's four children slept in another room.

Dharamveer requested tea once more after approximately five minutes and hurried to the makeshift kitchen on the terrace. Yadav stated, "He became enraged when his wife informed him that the tea preparation would take an additional ten minutes and then kicked the utensils away."

The officer stated that he then went to retrieve the weapon before returning to use it to murder his wife.

Their mother was reportedly found bleeding out when their son, identified as Soldier, raced to the location upon hearing her screams.

The children retreated to their rooms after allegedly being attacked by Dharamveer as they attempted to assist her.

Sundari was discovered lifeless in a pool of blood when villagers, roused by the cries, raced to their residence.

After sundari's body was removed for autopsy, the police were summoned. The apprehension of Dharamveer occurs.

As reported by the soldier to the Indian media, his father had previously become enraged over tea and frequently yelled at his mother, but never physically assaulted her.

"Dharamveer and Sundari argued over how to make tea," stated Assistant Commissioner of Police Gyan Prakash Rai. Subsequently, he presented her with a pointed implement and executed a rear-attack on her neck, resulting in her fate.

Ongoing is the investigation.
