Man Arrested in Maharashtra for Alleged Wife's Murder Disguised as Cardiac Arrest

A 48-year-old man, Suresh Sherphule, was arrested in Maharashtra's Beed district for allegedly killing his wife, Sheelabai Sherphule, by striking her head with a wooden stick during a heated argument. He reportedly tried to disguise her death as a cardiac arrest and transported her body to his native village in Nanded district. Police intervened after a tip-off, halted the funeral upon discovering head injuries inconsistent with natural death, and took Suresh into custody. The body was released to the family following a post-mortem.
