Gurgaon airhostess found dead, husband detained

Gurgaon: The jobless husband of a 25-year-old airhostess was detained on Sunday after the woman was found shot dead in their residence in Gurgaon, Haryana.

Ruchi, who worked with a private airline and had a five-month-old child, was found dead by neighbours who rushed to her house after hearing two gunshots at Acharaya Puri Colony. Ruchi had a bullet injury on her forehead and was immediately taken to a hospital where doctors declared her dead.

Police officials said Ruchi had married Gaurav Chauhan against her parents' wishes two years ago. Chauhan has told police Ruchi shot herself after quarreling with him.

Officials claimed the couple had a strained relationship because Chauhan couldn’t find a job.
