“He threw her in the roadside bushes in an isolated area and even smashed her face with a heavy object in order to hide her identity.

However, her body was spotted by a passerby and further investigations led us to Ansari. He was arrested late on Monday night,” the officer added.

During the investigation, Ansari told Jaipur police that his wife was addicted to her phone, and spent all her time on Facebook, which led to frequent fights between them.

The officer said that being fed up with his wife's obsession with social media and the constant fights, led Ansari to kill her. He has been jailed by a local court.
