- Former conductor arrested for allegedly beheading his wife.

A disturbing incident occurred in Gangarampur, South Dinajpur, where a former bus conductor was apprehended by police on Wednesday. The accused, Rintu Ghosh, was found inside a Kali temple in Ward 4, reportedly holding the severed head of his 35-year-old wife, Seema Sarkar, on his lap. His two young sons were seated next to him.
Residing residents alerted authorities, who quickly arrived at the scene to arrest Ghosh. The victim's body was subsequently recovered and sent for a post-mortem examination. During his transport in a police vehicle, Ghosh was heard telling reporters that he had become 'psycho' after losing his job and experiencing difficulties at the police station.
A relative mentioned that Ghosh had recently adopted a vegetarian diet and displayed what was described as tantric behavior, following a period of attempted small business ventures after his job loss. The police are currently interrogating Ghosh to determine the precise motive behind the gruesome act.
