Gurugram (The Uttam Hindu) : A man has been arrested in Gurugram on charges of killing his wife by pushing her off a roof, according to police reports.

Upon arrival at SGT Hospital Budhera, the police inspected the body and ordered an autopsy.

The accused, Dharam Singh, also known as Dharmu (32), reportedly pushed his wife Geeta (28) during a heated argument about drug use.
