Balasore: A woman was arrested here on Saturday for allegedly hiring three ‘supari’ killers to murder her husband. The three contract killers have also been arrested.
As per reports, the main accused Basanti of Ganeswarpur village under Sahadevkhunta police limits in the district paid Rs 50,000 to the trio to kill her husband, Madhav Behera.
Basanti orchestrated the murder plan alleging regular torture on her by Madhav.
