At 10:55pm on May 9, Gautam was outside her house and ran away after firing several shots in the air, she said.
He came again at 4am and threw a petrol bomb at her house, which destroyed several household goods including curtains, Sharma said.
The police said Archana Sharma’s daughter was married to Gautam whom she did not like, so she stopped talking to her daughter.
On the other hand, just after the marriage, Gautam began to harass her daughter, so she left his house and began to live somewhere.
Gautam suspected that his wife was living at her mother’s house, so he went there and fired in the air, the police said, adding that the case was under investigation.
