Zodiac Matches That Make The Best Couples
The police in Maharashtra’s Thane city have registered a case against a woman’s husband and four other relatives for causing her death over dowry, an official said on Thursday.
Victim Namrata, originally from Panipat in Haryana, married Thane resident Nikhil Agrawal in 2017. The couple has a son. While Namrata’s in-laws took Rs 50 lakh from her family before the wedding, they later wanted another Rs 50 lakh to purchase a flat, the official said citing the complaint.
Namrata, who had her MTech, faced daily torture and harassment at the hands of her in-laws after her family expressed their inability to arrange such a huge amount. Her in-laws allegedly poured oil on Namrata and set her afire on October 24 last year. She succumbed to her injuries two months later. “The in-laws commented that Namrata would have been alive had her family paid up the demanded money,” said the complaint filed by her mother.
The Kasarwadavli police on Wednesday registered a case for dowry death under the Indian Penal Code against Namrata’s husband Nikhil, his father Surendra Agrawal, mother Saroj Agrawal, brother Shikil Surendra Agrawal and sister-in-law Nancy Agrawal, the official added.
