The police have arrested a woman on the charge of killing her husband by conspiring with her paramour and others.
A team led by Police Inspector Javed Mushapuri arrested two associates of the woman.
Sandeep Manjre, ex-Serviceman, was seriously injured in an accident during the village fair in Yamakanamaradi near Belagavi. He was found inebriated and was admitted to a private hospital.
