Ghaziabad, 21 Aug (HS): According
to authorities, a lady has filed a police complaint stating that her husband
and in-laws harassed and tortured her for dowry and demanded that she maintain
a physique similar to Bollywood star Nora Fatehi's. The woman also accused her
in-laws of pushing her to take an abortion pill, which she said resulted in a
miscarriage.
A woman who was married six months ago said that her family spent more than Rs
76 lakh on the wedding. Despite this, her husband, a physical education teacher
at a government school, reportedly body-shamed her, calling her fat and
unattractive. Her husband and in-laws reportedly insisted that she work out for
three hours every day and threatened to deny her food if she did not comply.
She also accused her spouse of physical violence.

station. The complainant claimed her husband and in-laws harassed her in
a variety of ways, the officer stated on Thursday.

pressured her to work out. She also claimed that her in-laws did not offer her
meals on time. An FIR has been filed in response to this allegation, and
additional investigations are now underway. The complainant stated that her
spouse would urge her that she should be like Nora Fatehi and have a physique
like hers, the officer noted. The woman also claimed that her spouse was a
womaniser who would view indecent films of women online.
