The body of one Sabila (25) was found in the pond in Jhirki village under Kathara police station limits on Tuesday. While Sabila’s father, Sagir Akhtar claimed that his daughter’s husband and in-laws had killed her, police suspect it to be case of suicide.
Sabila's husband has been arrested. He has been charged with causing death for dowry, along with few of his family members. According to reports Sobila, resident of Kathara village in adjacent Jhirki village, was married to Jhirki village six years back.
According to the FIR, her husband and his family members tortured her for dowry since the day she was married and used to be brutally assaulted by her in-laws.
Sagir Akhtar, who filed the complaint, has sought stringent actions against all the accused so that other “dowry-hungry demons” learn a lesson and don’t treat any other woman inhumanly.
