Indian man kills wife over ‘addiction to Facebook, WhatsApp’
Hariom, 35, told police he strangled his wife Luxmi, 32, while she slept, the Indian Times reported.
During interrogation he told investigating officers that he had had enough of his wife spending hours on her phone, chatting on social media platforms.
Hariom claimed it was affecting “her duties as a mother and wife.”
“We got married in 2006 and had two children. All was fine for the first few years and then I got her a smartphone. In the past two years, the phone gradually changed her, and she started ignoring me and the children,” he was quoted by the newspaper as saying.
“It seemed that the children and I had ceased to exist for her. She would not cook meals or do any household chores. She would not take the kids to school or help them do homework. She spent days and nights on Facebook and WhatsApp,” he claimed.
It is understood he killed her Thursday night at their home. The next day, the dead woman - Luxmi’s father visited their house.
When he arrived he found his son-in-law sitting next to the body of his daughter.
The father called the police and Hairom was arrested.
