Sherlock Holmes received a typical case once again...
The police had found a woman dead on a road due to an accident. They handed the details of the woman to Sherlock Holmes. He called the woman's husband and the following conversation took place:
Sherlock: I'm sorry to say, but your wife had died in an accident
Husband: Oh No!! Is it true?
Sherlock: Yes, and don't waste time and come here immediately.
Husband: O.K. I'm coming.
The husband reached there and started crying bitterly.
Then Sherlock announced the name of the culprit.

Sherlock never told the husband where the location of the accident was and the husband never asked, so he must already have known where the "accident" took place. Now this doesn't guarantee that the husband killed his wife, but it does mean that he was lying to Sherlock. Technically he could have had someone else commit the act, but that would still make him a murderer by association and thus worthy of arrest.
