A man in Uttar Pradesh’s Jhansi has approached the Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), alleging that he caught his wife with her alleged lover and was attacked when he confronted them. The couple had reportedly been married for only around two months. The incident took place in a locality under Chirgaon police station, according to a report by Aaj Tak. A video purportedly showing the incident has also surfaced on social media and has triggered strong reactions over alleged affair.
Husband makes serious allegations
The man told police that he married the woman on June 24 in Bhander, Madhya Pradesh, following Hindu customs. He alleged that after the marriage, his wife began giving him sleeping tablets mixed in tea or milk so that she could speak to another man without his knowledge.
According to his complaint, he first suspected something was wrong when he allegedly found his wife with the man on August 19. He claimed that he again caught the two together at the alleged lover’s house on August 23.
