A woman admitted to killing her husband with her children’s help after a heated argument erupted between them.

According to details, a rice trader named Abdul Sattar was killed following a heated argument with his wife over his alleged affair with another woman. The police were able to solve the case after the man’s widow confessed to killing him with the help of her children.

The woman told the police that Abdul Sattar was abusive and used to beat her over domestic issues. “I had doubts that he has an affair with some other woman after I read two messages on his phone and dialed the number, only to hear a woman’s voice on the other side… that day, when he came I asked him about his affair upon which he started beating me and tried to strangle me,” she told the police. She said that once he tried to strangle her, she and her children attacked him with a cricket bat and some kitchen utensils. “I and my children went mad and started beating him,” said the woman. Police said that the beating eventually caused the rice trader’s death.
