3 Nov
Summary
- Husband interrogated in Jharkhand advocate's suspicious death.
- Couple's marital issues and husband's post-incident movements scrutinized.
- Husband's travel to Nepal after wife's death raises suspicion.
The marital relationship and recent activities of Kushagra Rudra, arrested in connection with the suspicious death of his wife, Jharkhand high court advocate Anushka Chakraborty, are under intense police scrutiny. Chakraborty was discovered hanging in her Hazaribag flat on October 22. Authorities are meticulously comparing Rudra's statements with technical evidence, witness testimonies, and the postmortem report to reconstruct the events leading up to the incident.
Rudra, who met Chakraborty while studying law, described their relationship as a love marriage that eventually faced increasing tensions. He cited disagreements over his mother's cancer care and his personal habits as contributing factors. The couple had reportedly moved out of the family home due to these disputes.
During interrogation, Rudra detailed an argument on the day of Chakraborty's death, reportedly over arranging food for his ailing mother. He claims she later locked herself in the bedroom. Rudra then reportedly traveled to Ranchi, subsequently attempting to contact Chakraborty. His actions after the incident, including traveling to Bodh Gaya, changing his SIM card, and visiting Nepal, are also being investigated. Rudra has denied any wrongdoing, asserting he has been falsely implicated in the case.
