Hyderabad: A small argument over food took a horrific turn in Telangana's Kamareddy district on Saturday night, where a woman allegedly murdered her husband with a sickle after he shouted at her for not cooking chicken. The  28-year-old scrap vendor asked his wife to prepare chicken curry for dinner. When the woman refused, a heated argument started between the couple.

What was the reason of argument?

The deceased, who has been identified as Kodandam Shivaji from Gosangi Colony, on Saturday at around 9 pm, had a small dispute with his wife, who is identified as Laxmi, for not preparing chicken curry. 

Seeing the quarrel, Dadaiah and Sharada, relatives living in the neighborhood, arrived at their house and tried to calm them down. But as soon as they left, the couple again started fighting accusing each other for household work and food. The argument escalated to the point where the couple began shouting at each other. Meanwhile, another relative, Nandini, came to calm them down, but neither of them relented.

What did the police say?

As per reports, the couple were married for six years and have two daughters.

According to the Kamareddy inspector B Narahari, "During the altercation, Laxmi picked up a sickle kept in the house and attacked Shivaji on the neck. He collapsed after the assault and sustained a head injury due to the fall. He died on the spot due to excessive bleeding."
