All people were good with her for a month, after that her brother-in-law Firdoz used to tell his mother something wrong about complainant without she doing anything wrong, and her mother- in- law used to insult her in front of everyone by abusing her. After all this, they used to tell her to apologize to each other, even if the complainant apologized to them, they always abused her for small things and threatened to leave her at her father’s house. They also used to threaten her that they will marry the Sufiyan again, so the Complainant used to keep silent. From 12/04/2021 her husband was always harassing her in physical relationship so she spoke to her mother in law about the matter but her mother in law told her to keep silent as the matter is a family matter, otherwise they will divorce her. After such a threat, Faizan abused her, her husband and father- in- law and brother- in- law also abused her by beating them with their hands.

When her parents saw her condition and her mother asked her mother-in-law about the matter. They told her parents, “Tumhari Ladki Nind Ki Goli Khati Hai” . and “kucch kam boli to marne ki dhamki deti hai”. However, the Complainant did not come to Agripada with her parents. Then after five days her in laws called her father, and her mother- in- law told him that ‘you should take her’.
On 11/12/2021 her husband and brother in law brought her to Agripada ( parents house area) but did not leave her at her father’s house instead they left her on the road and left. When she came home, her husband had only been talking with her on the phone for three days.
After that, her father called her in- laws to asked them about the treatment she received in the hospital and what the medical officer said, on which her father- in- law badmouthed her father and hung up the phone.
