Guddo, a native of Uttar Pradesh’s Badaun, had been living with Rakesh in a rented accommodation in Nada Sahib for the last three years.
The victim, Rakesh, also from UP, was found dead in Nada Sahib where he worked as a mason on September 15. His autopsy report had attributed the cause of death to stab injuries, which punctured his vital organs.
Guddo is a widow, while Rakesh was unmarried. His family had accused Guddo and her maternal uncles — Kamlesh and Meharban — of killing him.
