While the gruesome murder details of Shraddha Walkar case are focussing on Domestic Violence against Women, mainstream media, particularly the English media, fails to debate cases where husbands are murdered almost on a daily basis by wives.
In yet another #HusbandMurder case, reported this time from Maharashtra, a woman has been arrested for plotting murder of her husband and making it seem like a heart attack.
Case:
Ranjana Ramteke, a retired government officer, from Maharashtra’s Chandrapur district has been arrested for murdering her husband Shyam Ramteke in August this year, While the accused wife initially projected death of her spouse due to heart attack, she got exposed while confessing her crime in an audio recording, which was retrieved only now.
The recording was traced by none other but the younger daughter of the woman.
Husband Murder
Ranjana murdered her husband on August 6. Soon after the murder, she called her lover Mukesh Trivedi and casually confessed to her role in the crime.
According to the statement given by police to media, the audio recording of the phone conversation stated,
I suffocated him with a pillow. I will call relatives in the morning and inform them about his death. I will say that he suffered a heart attack.

When Ranjana informed the family next day of her husband’s death, no one really suspected her, since Shyam was 66-years-old and the body was cremated. Even the two daughters of the couple did not find anything suspicious.
However, it is now after three months, that their younger daughter Shweta visited her mother and accidentally got hold of this audio recording in her phone (while she was making calls from Ranjana’s mobile).
Subsequently, the matter was reported to the police.
It’s time India stops painting crime with gender. Both women and men are equally prone to such brutal murders and violence by spouse, and whoever is the perpetrator must face the law without bias.
