Amroha: A shocking case of wife-beating and murder in the name of dowry has emerged in Uttar Pradesh’s Amroha.

Sundar, a resident of Baikheda village, beat his wife Meena to death after clamouring for dowry on Sunday night.

Since Rakshabandhan in August, Meena had been staying at her parents' house in Soharka.
