Imphal, May 03 2011:
Alleging that Meena Devi took the extreme step of ending her own life by consuming pesticide on account of ill-treatment, house of her husband Deepak alias Kondumba located at Wabagai Kadajit was set aflame by the infuriated local residents today morning.
A large number of local residents gathered at the house of Maibam Deepak alias Kondumba and set it on fire at around 9.30 am today.
The house of Kondumba's father is at Hiyanglam Lai Panganba.
After his mother passed away while Kondumba was still a child, he was taken to Wabagai Kadajit where her maternal grandmother brought him up and he subsequently settled there along with marrying Meena Devi of the same locality.
Maibam Ongbi Meena Devi reportedly consumed pesticide in the afternoon of May 1 and she succumbed at RIMS Hospital yesterday morning.
Before she took the extreme step, the couple reportedly had a fight.
On the other hand, a meeting of the local residents held today resolved that Deepak would be banished for life from Wabagai and no one should give him shelter.
The meeting also decided that all the properties of Deepak would be transferred in the name of his 4year old daughter and ensured that the fugitive Deepak gets the due punishment in accordance to the law of the land.
