"Although Alauddin was married four times, he had no contact with his previous three wives. Nurjahan recently found out that he had secretly married for the fifth time. This led to disputes between them, and in an act of revenge, she stabbed him to death," he added.
After the murder, Nurjahan stayed at the scene, visibly distressed. The police arrived shortly after and took her into custody.
They also recovered the bloodstained weapon used in the attack.
Alauddin's body has been sent to Chattogram Medical College Hospital (CMCH) morgue for autopsy.
