Bhubaneswar, July 24: A 25-year-old pregnant woman was allegedly bludgeoned to death with a hammer by her husband in a slum under Airport police limits in the state capital this evening. The decease has been identified as Sakuntala Majhi. As per reports, her husband Muralidhar Behera assaulted her with a hammer over family feud. “Both of them were married for last one and half year. The couple used to have frequent argument over petty issues for which the deceased had left the house. She had returned few days ago,” said a police official. Her neighbours said that the deceased was three months pregnant and they managed to nab the husband, a mason by profession while he was trying to escape after committing the crime. “The husband has been detained and he is being further interrogated to ascertain the sequence of events leading to the murder,” said a police official.
