Friends,
I did not really believe that men beat their wives so mercilessly unless I saw one case in my own office where a lady constable was beaten most mercilessly by her husband, a Sub Inspector of police.
In this case, when the Lady constable Meenakshi came before me saying that she had some problem, I asked her to narrate facts. What emerged out of this was the case of a working woman being harassed and brutally beaten by her husband Amit Kumar. She had even previously registered a case against Amit in January 2010 and walked out of the house but the husband had somehow managed to cajole her back to the house.
As per Meenakshi, Amit had been mercilessly beating her with assistance of his father, mother and brother. They asked Meenakshi to leave her job but she somehow did not believe their intent and had been resisting this pressure.
For the last time she was beaten a few days back. When Meenakshi came before me, I could easily see the big, dark spots on her face. She had also other injuries on her hand and other parts.
I immediately gave her a few suggestions- 1. Get a case registered against Amit and family 2. File divorce petition because she was being beaten so for the last 6 years of her marriage.
Thankfully, Meenakshi agreed to these suggestions after which I got a FIR drafted for her and talked to the Station officer to get the case registered.
Meenakshi has said that she will no longer tolerate this inhuman conduct and that she will stand against her husband and fight his atrocities.
Yes, there is a possibility of Amit retaliating or trying to physically harm her because the Constable has no other person in her family, yet I personally feel that with courage and self-confidence she will be able to get thru these adversities.
Ironically, Amit and Meenakshi went thru a love affair and their marriage was what is called "love marriage" in our country.
I present this event as a case study to all the friends to look into the various facets of the matter, from various perspectives and discuss the related issues.
