...woman lies in bed listening to Christmas songs, crooning to her husband about their children. Abruptly he leaps from her side, explains that he has hired a hit man to kill her and regrets the action, but that it is too late for her to do anything except flee.

Ominous sounds woke Chandralatha, 28, last week in the remote jungle hamlet of Mahakongaskanda. Sensing danger, "I told my husband to hide under the bed," she later recounted from a hospital bed where she was recovering from bullet wounds.
