Case registered to investigate allegations, in-laws being questioned: Police<\/p>\n
Baramulla, Nov 11 (KNO): In a tragic incident, a woman died after consuming poison at her in-laws\u2019 home in Hadpura area in North Kashmir’s Baramulla on Monday, while her parental family has alleged that persistent physical and emotional abuse by her husband led her to take this extreme step.<\/p>\n
Mushtaq Ahmad, deceased’s relatives told the news agency\u2014Kashmir News Observer (KNO) that a woman (name withheld) had suffered ongoing abuse since the first year of her marriage three years ago.<\/p>\n
\u201cHer husband would beat her frequently. It became so common that she felt she had nowhere to turn,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n
Despite multiple interventions from the family and a legal case last year, which is still sub-judice, the pattern allegedly continued, Ahmed said.<\/p>\n
He said that the neighbours rushed the woman to the Baramulla hospital on Sunday evening, and the deceased woman was undergoing treatment at the hospital, however, breathed her last at around 3 am.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Police officials told KNO that they have registered a case and are investigating the allegations.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have called her husband for questioning, and will follow with the other family members,\u201d he said, while assuring a fool-proof probe into the allegations.<\/p>\n
Dr. Parvaiz Masoodi, Medical Superintendent at GMC Baramulla, confirmed the incident, and said that they received the patient who had taken poison and despite their efforts, she did not survive. He added that a post-mortem report would provide more details\u2014(KNO)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
