AHMEDABAD: A woman from the Paldi area of city on Sunday filed a complaint against her husband, a resident of Vastrapur, who works as a senior executive at a leading pharmaceutical firm in Changodar. The woman alleged that her husband had beaten and evicted her along with their eight-month-old daughter from their house when she asked him to bring flour.
In her FIR with Vastrapur police, the woman, 32, alleged that her husband, 38, and in-laws began harassing her extremely after she gave birth to a girl child.
She states in the FIR that she had been wed according to social customs and a few months after their wedding, her husband and in-laws began deriding her for not bringing sufficient dowry to their home.
She alleged that whenever she sought clothes and other essential materials from her husband, he told her to ask her parents to provide them.
In December 2019, she gave birth to a girl child and stayed at her parents’ place for two months. When she returned to her matrimonial home, her in-laws rebuked her for not bringing enough clothes and jewellery for the baby.
She also alleged that her husband’s younger brother and his wife, who stay in the USA, provoked her husband to beat her and abandon her. Her mother-in-law also fought with her recently and shifted to another house in Bopal.
On Sunday morning, she found that flour in the kitchen store had run out and asked her husband to bring some flour immediately. This did not go well with him who abused her and twisted her arm. She tried to save herself but was beaten badly by her husband who later pushed her and their daughter out of home.
She then called up police control room and a team of Vastrapur police reached there and registered a complaint under domestic violence act.
