Accident – Death – Obituary News : A 40-year-old woman from Assam’s Karimganj district has been taken into custody for allegedly assaulting her 65-year-old mother-in-law to death following a heated argument. The incident, which occurred on Wednesday, saw the accused, identified as Afsana Begum, allegedly using a wooden object to attack her mother-in-law, Joytun Nessa, after a dispute erupted between the two over the former’s treatment of her children. The family members reported the incident to the police, who subsequently arrested Begum on Thursday.

According to reports, Nessa was rushed to a nearby hospital by her son, where she tragically succumbed to her injuries the following day.

Subsequently, the police launched a search operation and apprehended Begum from a nearby residence. She has been charged under section 302 (murder) of the Indian Penal Code and other relevant sections. Begum was presented before the court on Friday evening for further legal proceedings.
