Udupi Superintendent of Police (SP) Arun Kumar said the accused, who is currently in 14-day police custody, had hid the knife used in the murder back in the kitchen of his house, where he lived with his wife.
"Working in the same airline, the accused and the victim knew each other and gradually developed a friendship. However, after the woman stopped talking to Chowgule last month, the accused was nursing animosity against her," the SP said.
