RAJKOT: An agitated man set his wife on fire following a domestic quarrel in Mahnagar Plot area of the city on Monday. The victim was admitted to civil hospital in a critical condition.
Poonam (27) told the police that her husband Kamlesh Solanki allegedly doused her with kerosene and torched her following a heated exchange of words between them.
“He used to come home late at night and did not give any explanation for doing so. On Monday night also we had a spat on the issue. I decided to commit suicide and brought out the can of kerosene. My agitated husband told me that I repeatedly came up with threats to commit suicide. He splashed the kerosene on me and set me on fire,” she told the police.
A case of attempt to murder has been registered against Solanki at ‘A’ Division Police Station. Kamlesh takes children to school and back.
