He asked her to stay at her parents place but assured to bring her back after a few days. However, later, her belongings were dropped at her parents' place and the accused made clear that he wants separation.
The complainant's parents tried to reunite them but to no avail. Eventually, they decided to separate. She filed a case in family court saying that she will only separate from her husband if the gold and loan money he took from her is returned.
The complainant alleged that her estranged husband sent her photographs of their intimate moments and threatened to make them public if she does not withdraw her case.
