Chaitanyapuri police under the Rachakonda Police Commissionerate arrested a 45-year-old woman for fatally stabbing her husband during a heated domestic quarrel at their residence in Kothapet, Hyderabad. The deceased was identified as 55-year-old Kotam Prabhakar, who worked as a private security guard in the local commercial district. According to police reports, frequent disputes over financial hardships and alcohol consumption had plagued the couple’s household, culminating in a violent confrontation early Sunday morning.
During the altercation, the accused, identified as Rajitha, allegedly grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed Prabhakar repeatedly in the chest and abdomen, causing severe internal bleeding. Upon hearing distress cries, neighbors alerted the police control room, but emergency medical technicians found Prabhakar unresponsive upon arrival. Investigating officers recovered the weapon from the kitchen, conducted a detailed scene inquest, and formally registered a case under Section 103(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita before remanding the woman to judicial custody.
