A senior officer from the Wanavdi Police Station told ANI, "The altercation arose when Nikhil declined to accompany Renuka to Dubai for her birthday celebration. Additionally, Renuka was discontented over not receiving lavish gifts on her birthday and their anniversary. Her dissatisfaction extended to Nikhil's reluctance to accompany her to Delhi for the birthdays of their relatives."

The police told PTI that they are probing whether the woman hit her husband using only her fist or some object and that the exact cause of the death will be known only after they conduct an autopsy. They were reportedly informed by the couple's neighbours. Nikhil was then taken to Sassoon General Hospital by the police where he was declared dead, the police personnel told. 

According to the agency reports, the police have arrested Renuka and booked her under Section 302 (murder) of the Indian Penal Code and further probe is being carried out into the incident.
