Hyderabad: Sowmya and Anil (names changed) were working together in a software company and after a year-long romance they got married two years back. Last month Sowmya filed a complaint against Anil under the Domestic Violence Act.
She said in her complaint that she expected more care and love from her husband after marriage. “But he totally changed after marriage. He made lots of promises before marriage and proved to be a liar. When I happened to talk to his colleagues, especially men, he could not stomach that and imposed restrictions on me. Before marriage he took great care about me, but after marriage he started manhandling,” she said in her complaint.
In another case, Radha (name changed) described a similar experience to the police. She said in her complaint that she had given up everything for her husband Sukumar (name changed).
“When we got married after a two-and-half-year romance, our families did not accept it. I left everyone for him. Our marriage was happy. But, a year back, he visited his family.
Before going he promised that he will convince his family to accept me. But, when he came back he was totally changed and started torturing me. Although he knows about my duty timings he started harbouring doubts about me. I want my husband’s love as before," she said.
