New Delhi, Dec. 25 -- A 40-year-old software engineer in Bengaluru allegedly killed his bank manager wife on Tuesday evening in west Bengaluru. The estranged husband, identified as Balamurugan, had planned the attack numerous months ago, the police said, according to Times Of India. The shooting occurred at around 6.30 pm near 1st Main Road in the Rajajinagar industrial area.

Balamurugan is alleged to have obtained an illegal pistol months in advance and kept a knife as a backup to ensure the crime was carried out. The victim Bhuvaneshwari was reportedly shot at point-blank range. Police said the accused later walked into a police station, surrendered, and gave both the firearm and the knife, allegedly stating that his wife "deserved it"...
