Nikita Agrawal, 29, allegedly beat her mother-in-law to death with an iron rod, before apparently trying to burn her body to cover her tracks on Tuesday. Officers believe she killed Rekha Agrawal after the 52-year-old accused her of having an affair with her father-in-law, who she also claimed had impregnated her. His wife and mother had been arguing ever since he got married in January, it is claimed. Dipak reportedly put a ladder up against the flat window to climb inside after his wife told him she was locked in the bedroom. Agrawal is said to have beaten her mother-in-law so badly she cracked her skull open with the iron rod, the Ahmedabad Mirror reports.
