Truth surprises police
However, the investigation revealed a surprising truth - there had been no attack by her in-laws. The incident turned out to be part of an ongoing family dispute between the woman and her husband.
Police said the woman had recently moved to Indore from Ghaziabad, where she had been living for some time. She reportedly locked herself in the room, recorded the video and circulated it online.
Counselling of couple begins
According to Additional DCP (Crime) Rajesh Dandotiya, as soon as the video surfaced, a police team led by Women Inspector Neetu Singh and an FRV unit was sent to the location. Officers found that the door was not locked from outside, and no in-laws were present at the scene.
Further inquiry revealed that both sides had previously filed complaints against each other - the husband had lodged a case at Lasudia police station, while the woman had filed a domestic violence complaint against her husband and in-laws in Ghaziabad.
Police have begun counseling sessions for the couple and confirmed that the woman’s claims in the viral video were false. The matter is under detailed investigation.
