Dindori, Jan 29: A woman sub divisional magistrate (SDM) posted in Shahpura in Madhya Pradesh's Dindori district was allegedly murdered by her husband for not making him the nominee in service, insurance and bank records, a senior police official said on Monday.
SDM Nisha Napit (51) got married to Manish Sharma (45) through a social media site in 2020 and his demand to make him the nominee in service, insurance and bank records had created discord as the deceased was not obliging him, Superintendent of Police Akhil Patel told reporters.
Sharma suffocated her with a pillow on Sunday, sat near the corpse for six hours and then took the body to the nearby community health centre, but doctors there alerted police, the SP said.
Sharma had also washed her blood stained clothes as well as the pillow in the washing machine, Patel said.
"Based on our probe and leads gathered from the spot, we questioned Sharma and then arrested him. He has been charged with murder, dowry-related death, destroying evidence and other offences," he said.
Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Mukesh Shrivastava hailed the investigating team for solving the case in 24 hours and announced a reward of Rs 20,000, he added.
Police sources said the accused is reportedly a property dealer.

Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
