Man in Mudigere kills wife after fighting with her in drunken state; detained by police
Chikkamagaluru: A man living in Kirugunda village of Mudigere taluk allegedly fought with his wife Padmakshi (40) in a state of inebriation and ended up hacking her to death on Friday night. The local police officers have detained the accused.
The husband, Chandru, is learned to have returned home at the SC/ST Layout in Kirugunda at night, after drinking, which upset his wife and led to the argument between the couple. As the fight between them in the front yard of the house intensified, Chandru, infuriated on being questioned by his wife, attacked her with a sickle. Padmakshi, who was grievously injured due to the attack, is learned to have died in the front yard at night.
Chandru, unaware that his wife had died, spent the night inside the house and learned of the matter when he came out in the morning.
A case has been registered at the Gonibeedu Police Station and the officers, who visited the SC/ST Layout during investigation, have detained Chandru.

US rules out use of nuclear weapons against Iran
Washington DC: The White House has reportedly ruled out the use of nuclear weapons against Iran, even as uncertainty continues over ongoing peace negotiations and a deadline set by US President Donald Trump approaches.
Issues bout a possible escalation had increased after US Vice President JD Vance said that the United States has “tools in our toolkit that we so far haven’t decided to use” in dealing with Iran.
His remarks came amid rising tensions and ahead of a deadline linked to peace efforts.
The situation has attracted attention as Trump warned Iran that its “whole civilization will die tonight tonight” if an agreement is not reached by Tuesday at 8 pm.
This statement led to speculation about the possibility of extreme military measures, including a nuclear strike.
Following Vance’s comments, the White House issued a clarification distancing itself from such interpretations. In a post on X, it said, "Literally nothing @VP said here 'implies' this, you absolute buffoons." In a later statement, it added that “only the president knows” what action will be taken regarding Iran.
