Ahmedabad Woman Alleges Harassment, Husband Flees Abroad with Another Woman
A 36-year-old woman from Prahladnagar, Ahmedabad, has filed a police complaint alleging harassment by her husband and in-laws, culminating in her husband fleeing to another country with another woman. The woman, who married a tennis coach in 2019, detailed a pattern of mental and physical abuse, as well as financial pressure from her in-laws.
Timeline of Events
The woman’s ordeal began approximately two years after her marriage, when she alleges the behavior of her in-laws began to change. Her mother-in-law, a principal at a private school, and her father-in-law, who runs an IT business, reportedly subjected her to constant interference and insults regarding household matters. News18 reported on these allegations.
Financial Pressure and Alleged Abuse
The complainant further alleges that her mother-in-law pressured her to obtain money from her parents to facilitate her husband’s relocation abroad. Disputes would arise whenever she spoke with her mother regarding these requests. She also claims to have been physically assaulted by her husband when she voiced her objections. The situation reportedly worsened after the birth of their son.
Husband’s Departure
Approximately three months ago, the husband left home under the pretext of a photoshoot in Shantigram. Initial contact was maintained, but it soon became clear he had left the country with another woman and her children. For three months, he ceased all communication with his wife and son. Hindi News18 detailed this sequence of events.
Police Complaint and Investigation
Distraught, the woman filed a complaint at Anandnagar Police Station. Police have registered a case against the husband, mother-in-law, and father-in-law, alleging dowry harassment, mental and physical torture. An investigation is currently underway.
