While public discourse often portrays women as victims in marital violence, a string of chilling cases in India has brought to light a disturbing reality: some wives brutally plot or carry out murders against their husbands.
High-Profile Cases
1. Muskan & the “Drum Murder”
In Meerut, 28-year-old Muskan
Rastogi and her lover allegedly killed her husband, 35-year-old merchant navy
officer Saurabh Rajput, in March. He was drugged, stabbed, dismembered, and
concealed inside a cement-filled drum. Muskan reportedly rehearsed the attack
beforehand, and both have confessed to the crime.
In Auraiya, Uttar Pradesh, just 15
days after her marriage in March, Pragati Yadav conspired with her lover and
hired a hitman to kill her husband, 25-year-old Dilip Yadav. He was shot in a
field and later died at a hospital.
Barely days into her honeymoon in
Meghalya, Sonam allegedly orchestrated the stabbing of her husband Raja
Raghuvanshi on May 23. His body was found in a gorge; Sonam has been arrested
along with three accomplices suspected of being hired killers.
Why These Cases Matter
These terrifying incidents, though
still rare, highlight some urgent points:
● Marital Crime Is Not One-Sided
The assumption that only men can
be abusers or that marital murders are always male-perpetrated overlooks male
vulnerability—shattering stereotypes that conceal the reality.
● Advance Planning Shows Intent
In all three cases, the crimes appear premeditated, involving careful plotting—showing that this isn’t “heat-of-the-moment” violence but planned betrayal.
● Impact on Men and Society
These crimes fuel fear and
uncertainty about marriage—impacting men’s trust in the institution and leading
to higher emotional, social, and legal costs. They also strain family
structures and communities.
Strengthening Prevention & Support
● Legal Solutions: India's Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) apply equally to all genders. However, support networks and reporting for male victims are practically nonexistent.
● Counseling & Mediation: Promoting open, early dialogue—including mandatory premarital counseling—could help identify at-risk relationships before tragedy occurs.
● Public Awareness: It's vital to recognize and speak openly about male victimhood. Educational programs must highlight that any gender can be a victim or a perpetrator.
Conclusion
These harrowing cases—Muskan, Pragati, Sonam—remind us that intimate relationships can veer into horror, regardless of gender. Burying these stories in shame only perpetuates gender bias and denies justice to affected men. Recognizing male vulnerability is essential for a truly just and safe society.
