Representative imageAHMEDABAD: A 25-year-old woman created an Instagram account using an alias and began chatting with her husband, who is presently in Australia. Her husband allegedly fell for the ruse and proposed a live-in relationship with the woman his wife was pretending to be.
Shaily Panchal, a resident of Naroda, was heartbroken on confirming that her husband, Chetan Panchal, was soliciting relationships with other women, while he was abroad. Interestingly, Panchal was using the same account through which he had met Shaily to propose a relationship with the “other woman”.
“The couple had a two-year relationship and got married in February 2017. Soon after the wedding, Chetan went to Australia on a student visa,” said a senior police official.
According to FIR, alleging desertion, lodged at the Women’s Police Station (East) on Tuesday, their marital relationship was happy for about four months, before Chetan began ignoring Shaily and stopped replying to her messages even though he was online.
“Most of the calls Shaily made to Chetan went unanswered. Once or twice, Chetan answered the call only to tell her that he was busy with work,” a police source said.
The FIR states that Shaily spoke to her mother-in-law Geetanben and father-in-law Ishwarlal about Chetan’s changed behaviour, but they brushed off her complaints saying they would speak to him.
A senior police official said that in November 2017, Chetan came to India. “Shaily happened to see his mobile phone and found several numbers of women on it. Chetan had then told her that the girls were just his friends and nothing else, but that created suspiciouns in Shaily’s mind,” a police official said.
Police sources said Shaily then decided to set a trap and opened an Instagram account under a false name of an ostensibly Australian woman. “Chetan started chatting with her and asked her to enter a live- in relationship with him. Shaily then went to live with her parents,” a police official said.
A senior police official said they have lodged an FIR, which names Shaily’s Ishwarlal, Geetaben and Chetan as the accused.
