New Delhi, Mar 23 A man was arrested for allegedly killing his wife, two days after she was found dead at her south Delhi residence, police said today.
Police said Manoj Kumar (34) strangled Neelam (33) with the help of a friend and then removed her mangalsutra and ransacked the house to make it look like a robbery-cum-murder to mislead them.
He allegedly committed the murder at around 5 pm on Saturday, went out of the house and returned at 7.30 pm.
"He went inside, took his wife's body and rushed it to Moolchand Hospital without informing police. This move made us suspicious. Later, hospital authorities called us and informed that a woman had been brought dead," a senior police official said.
They were married for the last eight years.
The couple did not have children and this was a major source of discontentment between husband and wife, the official said.

New Delhi, Mar 24 Rajshri Productions' much coveted film 'Tansen', which was put on hold during the economic slump, is all set to be revived.
The big budget period drama, about legendary singer Tansen, one of the navratnas in Mughal emperor Akbar's court, will be directed by Satish Kaushik, who hopes to make a grand film now that the Barjatya's have given a green signal for the production.
"Number of films were hit by slowdown, worsening the situation in Bollywood. There were dozens of disasters that piled up in Bollywood which meant that there was no further progress on 'Tansen'. It was a wait and watch game for everyone involved since 'Tansen' was supposed to be a big budget extravaganza," Kaushik said.
Normally cost conscious Barjatyas were going all out with 'Tansen' and planning to pitch it as one of the costliest Hindi films to be ever made.
