A man in Pune, India was seen walking down the street holding his wife’s severed head by the hair in one hand and carrying an axe in the other. He was arrested after someone called the police to report what they had seen.

The man was identified as 53-year-old Ramchandra Sheu Chavan, who police say was a watchman in Pune for almost 20 years. He allegedly beheaded his wife Sonabai Ramchandra Chavan, 45, on Friday morning because he thought she was having an affair with his son-in-law. The two who were often seen arguing according to neighbors were reportedly arguing before Ramchandra attacked Sonabai, locking his daughter-in-law and two grandsons in the house first.

Police have charged him with murder but are still investigating.
