The victim, identified as Balwinder Kaur (41) from Mallah village in Jagraon, was reportedly stabbed by her husband Jagpreet Singh, also known as Raju (50), a resident of Kanchan Colony on Pakhowal road in Ludhiana. 

The dreadful incident unfolded on March 15 at the 3400-block of Wagner Drive and victim’s Balwinder Kaur body was discovered from her home at British Columbia's Abbotsford with critical stab wounds. 

Speaking to media sources, Balwinder Kaur’s sister Rajwinder Kaur said, “After stabbing my sister to death, Jagpreet made a video call to his mother back home in Ludhiana.” 

As per the statement by family of victim, the couple frequently quarrelled about financial matters. Couple tied knot in 2000 and had two children – a daughter Harnoorpreet Kaur (22) and a son Gurnoor Singh (18).

However, family of Jagpreet Singh refuted Rajwinder's claims, stating, "We are still unsure about what happened between my brother and his wife that night. However, neither he nor our family ever mistreated Balwinder Kaur. Following the incident, my brother contacted our mother to inform us that he had accidentally injured his wife and was seeking forgiveness.”
