AGARTALA: A 40-year-old woman from Indira Colony in Kowai district in Tripura has been arrested after she beheaded her 50-year-old husband and packed it inside a shopping bag.

The police said the woman reportedly sat beside the dead body and the murder weapon throughout the night and later, a team reached her house to arrest her. The woman was sent to judicial custody by a local court, said the police.

The woman allegedly attacked her husband in his sleep around 2 am with a machete and beheaded him. Her brother and her two sons fled the spot and informed the police.
