Tragedy struck Mani Tola in Ranchi’s Dorunda jurisdiction Saturday noon when a woman was fatally shot by her own husband. Identified as Tannu aka Rani, the victim bled out from a headshot. Saheb Ansari, her spouse and chief suspect, escaped before help arrived.
The gunshot alerted the vicinity, leading residents to the fleeing man and his slain wife indoors. Dorunda police, under SHO Deepika Prasad, responded rapidly, enlisting FSL for scene analysis where a gun was found nearby—hinting at a botched accident cover-up.
Hatia DSP Pramod Kumar Mishra outlined the trigger: Saheb’s suspected extramarital ties clashed with Rani’s stance, erupting into murder amid a heated row.
Fugitive Saheb tops the wanted list as patrols raid suspected spots relentlessly. The operation underscores police commitment amid public outrage.
Beyond the immediate probe—encompassing forensics and interviews—this event spotlights escalating domestic threats. Jharkhand authorities may review firearm regulations in response. Rani’s untimely end leaves a void, with justice pursued vigorously.
