Kolhapur, Jul 5 (UNI) A 46-year-old woman was arrested from Ichalkaranji city of this district for allegedly killing her husband.

According to the Shahapur police, the victim has been identified as the watchman Shivaji Vithoba Devkar (49), who was the resident at R K Nagar suburb of the Ichalkaranji city.
