The woman said that when she said no to the demands, she was assaulted by her husband. She said that she could not inform anybody about her ordeal as her husband eavesdropped on her calls. She said that her husband's sister demanded a gold ring and an expensive phone.

In 2021, just before Holi, the woman was able to meet her aunt and her brother's wife. She told her relatives about the horrors she had to endure.

The woman said that on March 18, her husband dropped her at her parents' home with the IELTS ruse. The woman said she felt isolated at her parents' home and had to depend on them for money. She had filed an application at the women's police station, but her in-laws refused to give back her belongings. Hence she lodged a complaint on Thursday.
