Altercation over taste of curry claims couple's lives

 

 

A heated exchange over the taste of a curry led to a woman committing suicide by setting herself ablaze and her husband, who tried to save her, also succumbed to burns, police said recently.

While the 37-year-old husband died the same night, his wife succumbed the following morning.

Police said the man had commented about the taste of 'Sambar' while taking dinner at their home in India, leading to an heated exchange with his wife.

Enraged over her husband's comments, the woman doused herself with kerosene and set herself ablaze. Her husband, who tried to save her, suffered serious burn injuries, they said, adding that their two children were also injured in the melee.
