Agra Woman Arrested After Husband's Body Found Buried Under Bathroom FloorPreviousNext

In Agra, Uttar Pradesh, the body of 44-year-old Surendra Sharma was found buried beneath the bathroom floor of his home nearly 45 days after he was reported missing. Police allege his wife, Ruby Sharma, killed him and concealed the body by plastering over it. Ruby was arrested following inconsistencies in her statements and a tip from Surendra's brother. Authorities are investigating the motive and whether others were involved, with the body sent for post-mortem examination.
