Horror on Pune streets as man walks with wife’s severed head

The sight of a man walking around with a severed head shocked people on the streets of Pune in Maharashtra on Friday morning.

Ramachandra Chavan, 60, allegedly beheaded his 55-year-old wife Sonabai and then walked around with the head until the traffic police stopped him and arrested him.

In a chilling mobile clip, Chavan, wearing a dhoti and kurta, is seen holding the head in one hand and an axe in the other; two policemen are seen running after him as others on the road gape. The police quickly covered the head with a cloth.

It is being believed that Chavan, a security guard by profession, killed his 55-year-old wife as he suspected her of having an extra-marital affair.
