Wife's Plot to Murder Husband Foiled by Nanjangud Police
Imagine a woman named Sangeetha was very unhappy with her husband, Rajendra, because they argued a lot.
She came up with a bad plan to have him murdered.
She asked her brother, Sanjay, and his friends to help.
Their idea was to pretend it was a robbery.
On October 25, they pushed Rajendra and Sangeetha off their scooter.
Two people tried to steal Sangeetha's necklace, and one stabbed Rajendra.
But their plan didn't work perfectly.
A car showed up, and they got scared and ran away before finishing the job.
Rajendra was hurt but survived and told the police what happened.
The police looked at cameras and evidence, and figured out Sangeetha was behind it.
Now, Sangeetha, her brother, and his friends have been arrested.

The accused confessed to orchestrating the attack due to marital discord.
The victim is recovering in a Mysuru hospital, and all accused have been remanded to judicial custody.
