Nuapada: Khariar police on Sunday arrested three of a family on charges of causing the death of a housewife and forwarded the accused to the court.

According to sub-divisional police officer Santak Jena, Sumitra Dal, daughter of Bharat Dal of Bahalmunda under Komna police station limits, was married to Chitaman Dal of Rishigaon under Khariar police station limits of Nuapada district.
