Guneswari informed the police that she killed her husband in a fit of rage ‘distressed’ over the frequent domestic violence.
“I had no other choice but to kill him,” admitted Guneswari before the police.
A mother of five children, Guneswari, who is in her mid-forties said, “He (Mudhiram Borkotoky) often came home drunk and was an offender. I had been bearing him for years and should have separated from him years back. But due to our children, I sacrificed and stayed back. However, his activities were intolerable. Today (on 28th May night) he attempted to kill me, so in an act of self-defence I stabbed him.”
“I have brought his severed head to the police. Now it is up to them, I will accept whatever decision is taken,” the woman added.
Meanwhile, the police took Guneswari in their custody and started investigation into the case.
