Police recovered the spade believed to have been used in the killings.

The FIR was lodged by Shobha, Sushila’s daughter and the wife of the accused.

Authorities stated that the matter has effectively concluded, as both individuals involved are now deceased. Initial reports suggest that the altercation began when the mother-in-law assaulted her son-in-law, leading to a confrontation that tragically ended in the deaths of both.
