Maryland, US, April 13 (HBTV): The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has offered a reward of up to $250,000 for information leading to the arrest of Ten Most Wanted Fugitive Bhadreshkumar Chetanbhai Patel, wanted for allegedly killing his wife while they were working at a donut shop in Hanover, Maryland, on April 12, 2015.     



Patel has been on the FBI's radar since 2017. 



According to news agencies, Patel, then 24 years of age, attacked his 21-year-old wife with a kitchen knife and inflicting multiple stab wounds in the shop's backroom in the presence of customers.  



Patel and Palak were working the night shift at the Dunkin’ Donuts store during that April night. CCTV footage captured during the incident showed the couple heading towards the kitchen area before disappearing behind the racks, agencies reported.  



Patel faces charges including first-degree murder, second-degree murder, first-degree assault, second-degree assault, and possession of a dangerous weapon with intent to injure.                



An arrest warrant was issued by the US District Court in Baltimore on April 20, 2015, after Patel was charged with fleeing to avoid prosecution.
