The wife is alive

Dear Editor,

I refer to the article captioned “At Chateau Margot, man kills self after chopping wife” (07.12.19). The last paragraph of this article reads ” Vivekanand also leaves behind a son who lives in Trinidad “.

Are you not rushing things just a bit, by about 40 years we hope, as the good lady is, according to your article, in hospital and not at all dead.

Best regards.

Yours faithfully,

David Stevens

Editor’s note

You are quite right, the last paragraph should have said “Jhagru (the husband) leaves behind a son”
