Bihar men arrested for spousal murders

Overview

In late July 2026, police in Bihar’s Nalanda district arrested a husband suspected of killing his newlywed wife and discarding her body in the Ganges River. Authorities launched a river‑search operation and began a post‑mortem to determine the cause of death.

A week later, a separate case emerged in Bengaluru. A 24‑year‑old man from East Champaran district, identified as Dhiraj Kumar, was taken into custody after confessing to strangling his wife, Reema Kumari, following a domestic dispute. The victim’s decomposed body was discovered in their apartment, prompting a murder and evidence‑destruction investigation that led police to trace and arrest the suspect in Bihar.

Both incidents involve men from Bihar accused of murdering their spouses, resulting in arrests by local police in different Indian states and ongoing investigations into the motives and circumstances of the killings.
