Kottayam: Hours after the brutal murder of the complainant in the infamous Kerala patner-swapping case, the deceased woman's husband allegedly attempted to commit suicide.
The man reportedly consumed poison and was rushed to a private hospital at Chethipuzha before being shifted to the Medical College Hospital.
However, his condition is said to be stable.
Early on Friday, the complainant in the case, that goes back to January 2022, was hacked to death in the courtyard of her house at Malam.
The family of the woman had pointed fingers at her husband.
The complainant had blown the lid off spouse-swapping incidents by filing a case with the Karukachal Police last January. A probe had led to the arrest of six persons in connecton with the case.
