According to police officials, the couple had been facing regular domestic disputes for a long time. Investigators said the accused woman, identified as Draupati Bai, suspected her husband of being involved in a relationship with another woman.

Police said the tension between the couple had reportedly continued for several months before the violent incident took place, according to a report by India Today.

Alleged attack took place while husband was asleep

According to the initial police investigation, the couple had dinner together on the night of the incident before going to sleep.

Late at night, the woman allegedly attacked Rajesh with a sickle while he was asleep. Police said the assault caused severe injuries after his private parts were allegedly chopped off during the attack.

Officials said the injured man, despite heavy bleeding, ran out of the room screaming for help.
