Bhubaneswar, Aug 9: A tragic incident occurred on Thursday night in Fatakara village under Paintula police limits in Bolangir district, where a man allegedly murdered his wife in a fit of rage induced by alcohol addiction. The victim, identified as Mamata Chhanda, was found dead with severe injuries to her neck.

Reports indicate that Mamata’s husband, Abhijit Chhanda, is a habitual drunkard. His liquor addiction often led to regular disputes and tension between the couple. On the fateful night, Abhijit returned home in an inebriated state, which sparked a heated argument with Mamata. In a moment of uncontrollable rage, Abhijit allegedly strangled his wife to death.

The couple, married for eight years, had two young children who are now left without their mother. Following a tip-off, police arrived at the scene and took Abhijit into custody. Authorities are conducting a thorough investigation into the matter to gather more details and ensure justice is served.
