A 30-year-old man Shareef, a resident of Julahanpurwa, India, beheaded his wife Rahmatul (27) for cooking bad food on Saturday night and roamed around the village with her head.
He came back home and had dinner and later informed the police of the incident, which led to his arrest.
The body was sent for a postmortem.
The man told the police about his wife's apparent illicit relationship and the horrible food she cooked for him.
Before the incident happened, Shareef was having his food where he apparently found a stone and then scolded his wife.
Rahmatul argued with him and Shareef lost his cool and beheaded her with a sharp-edged weapon lying nearby.
The villagers told Dehat Kotwali police that Shareef is mentally ill and for the last two years and he has been under treatment.
A case of murder has been registered and the man was arrested.
