A 34-year-old man was apprehended on Saturday for allegedly killing his wife after a heated argument at their home in west Delhi's Madipur area, police said.
Rahisul Azam, who works as a street vendor in Jahangirpuri, called police at 3.56 am on Saturday and informed them about a quarrel with his wife Gulshan, 39.
When the police reached the spot, they found Gulshan dead. She was hit on her head with a stick during the fight, a senior police official said.
This was their second marriage which was solemnised three months ago. They had a fight over their children from earlier marriages, the officer said.
