Noida Man Kills Wife: A 55-year-old man in Noida allegedly murdered his wife with a hammer over the suspicion that she was having an affair, the police said on Saturday.

According to police, Asma, 42, worked as a software engineer in Noida while her husband Nurullah Haider was without job. “Today, the Phase 1 Police Station team received information that a person bludgeoned his wife to death using a hammer over suspicion of affair,” PTI quoted Deputy Commissioner of Police (Noida) Ram Badan Singh as saying.

“On Friday around 1pm, my wife Farida (Asma’s sister) received a call from Samad, who informed her that his mother was dead. When Farida asked what had happened, Samad said his father killed her, and she was lying in a pool of blood on the bed,” said Nadeem, Farida’s husband and a resident of Jamia Nagar in Delhi.

He said, “By the time we reached Noida, police had been informed. Around noon, when Asma and Haider were in their room, it is suspected that he covered her face with a pillow and repeatedly hit her on the head with a hammer.”

Asma’s family revealed that the couple had been quarrelling for the past several days. Around 5am on Friday, Asma had called her sister, seeking her intervention as Haider and she had been fighting through the night.
