Husband admits k!king and cooking his wife, but cops let him walk free due to lack of evidence

A husband in India has admitted to k!lling and cooking his wife following a heated argument.
According to Mail Online, Gurumurthy, 45, told Rachakonda police in Hyderabad that he had slaughtered his wife Venkata Madhavi, 35, who had been reported missing since January 16.
The retired soldier told authorities he had k!lled his wife of 13 years, after slamming her against a wall which resulted in an instant death.
Gurumurthy, a father of two, then claimed to have dismembered her corpse using a kitchen knife before boiling the body parts.
After boiling, Gurumurthy told cops he had placed her limbs in a pressure cooker for five-to-six hours and used a pestle and mortar to grind down her bones. He is then said to have thrown the remaining flesh and powdered bones into Meerpet Lake.
Police seized potential evidence, including the pressure cooker, a kettle, and knives from the apartment where the butchering is believed to have taken place.
Forensic teams, as well as a dog squad, have searched around the lake for the remains but have so far emerged unsuccessful in their attempts.
‘We cannot rely on mere allegations. We are collecting all technical and scientific evidence. The case is being investigated,’ a police spokesman told The India Express newspaper.
As police continue to interrogate Gurumurthy, the Meerpet police believe he may have killed Madhavi in a fit of rage and did everything possible to avoid the crime being detected.
‘As of now, we don’t have any reasons to believe it was a premeditated crime. It seems like the result of a petty quarrel,’ Ch Praveen Kumar, Deputy Commissioner of Police told the newspaper.
‘We are questioning the suspect and we have not recovered any body parts. We do not have enough clues,’ he added.
Gurumurthy told the police Madhavi left home in a fit of rage after a quarrel between them on the morning of January 16. But during their investigation, the police grew suspicious of the husband after going through footage obtained from CCTV cameras installed near Gurumurthy’s house in the colony.

Provide evidence or drop allegations against Akpabio, Adeyanju tells Natasha

Human rights lawyer and activist, Deji Adeyanju, has called on Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan (Kogi Central) to present concrete evidence to back her allegations of sexual harassment against Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
Speaking at a press conference in Abuja on Friday, Adeyanju stated that without verifiable proof, Nigerians should not dwell on the matter.
He urged the public to focus on more pressing issues, such as the Tax Reform Bill and its potential impact on low- and middle-income earners.
According to him, solid evidence would lend credibility to Akpoti-Uduaghan’s claims and warrant public scrutiny of Akpabio’s actions.
However, without such proof, the allegations remain unsubstantiated.
Adeyanju also argued that the controversy had been overflogged and should be resolved in court.
He criticised the selective outrage over the issue, noting that there was little public reaction when lawmakers received luxury cars and budgetary allocations.
He also questioned why the same senators now engaged in the dispute did not oppose the anti-people policies of the current administration.
“The question I have asked is this: when all these anti-people policies of the Tinubu government were being implemented, why didn’t these senators—who are now fighting over allegations of sexual harassment and concerns about ’embarrassing the Senate’—speak out against them?”
“When lawmakers were sharing cars in the National Assembly, there was no fight. When they were distributing money and budgetary allocations, there was no fight. But now, suddenly, we are hearing about a fight.”
Adeyanju further stated that Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan should, as a matter of necessity, make public credible evidence to support her claims, especially since she has been denied a fair hearing in the Senate.
He said, “Senator Natasha has alleged that the Senate President tried to sexually harass her. Since the Senate has refused to give her a fair hearing, she should present credible evidence to back up her claim.”
“It’s very simple. The man has denied the allegation. So, if there are messages—perhaps invitations or suggestive remarks—she should reveal them and expose him. After all, he who alleges must prove.”

US Congress approves sanctions on Nigeria over Christian k!llings

The United States House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Africa has given President Donald Trump the green light to impose stringent sanctions on Nigeria in response to the widespread k!lling of Christians in the country.
The decision followed a congressional hearing on Wednesday, March 12. during which lawmakers condemned the Nigerian government for failing to protect Christian communities from escalating violence.
The committee also cited a 2024 report by the Observatory for Religious Freedom in Africa, which revealed that Nigerians accounted for 90 per cent of all Christians killed worldwide each year.
The report documented that between October 2019 and September 2023, a staggering 55,910 people were killed, while 21,000 others were abducted by terrorist groups operating in the region.
During the hearing, Committee Chairman Chris Smith, who highlighted the severity of the crisis, pointed to testimony from Bishop Wilfred Anagbe of the Diocese of Makurdi, Nigeria, as a viable witness.
He said: “One of our distinguished witnesses today—Bishop Wilfred Anagbe—travelled a long distance to be with us, and his testimony is both compelling and disturbing.
disturbing.
“Militant Fulani herdsmen are terrorists. They steal and vandalise, they kill and boast about it, they kidnap and rape, and they enjoy total impunity from elected officials. None of them have been arrested or brought to justice.”
“Make no mistake – these attacks are religiously motivated,” the report stated, adding: “Denying this reality contradicts the overwhelming evidence we have seen with our own eyes. This ‘religious cleansing’ must stop, and those responsible must be held accountable.”
The congressional panel strongly criticised the Nigerian government for failing to address religiously motivated violence, despite constitutional protections for religious freedom.
Expressing concern that Nigeria’s judicial system had been weaponised to suppress Christian communities, the lawmakers cited cases where blasphemy laws have been used to target religious minorities.
