The man died in the explosion.
The event took place last Monday in the Kabirdham district, in the state of Chhatisgarh, in central India, when the gift given to the couple, a home theater system, exploded when plugged into the electric current
,
confirmed local police officer Surendra Sahare.
The ex-boyfriend of the newlywed, who was arrested yesterday by the Indian authorities as the main defendant in this event, sent the day of the wedding a "gift to the couple a home theater system that exploded," he said.

The strong explosion, which even brought down the walls of the room where the event took place,
killed the husband and his brother
, and injured four other people, including a minor, reported police sources quoted by the Indian channel
NDTV.
He was mad at his ex
girlfriend
After his arrest, the defendant admitted to police that he sent the couple an explosives-laden wedding gift because he was angry with his ex-girlfriend
for marrying another
man after insisting that she become his second wife.
The house was semi-destroyed after the explosion.
Revenge and honor killings are common in India, among a deeply patriarchal society that perceives
a woman's refusal of
a man's romantic proposal as an offense.
Often crimes of harassment, threats, rape, acid attacks, or in the worst scenarios, death, occupy the headlines of the media related to reasons of honor.
