A man who has accused his wife of domestic violence shot a video of her wife beating him with a broom to be presented as evidence.
The man, who is a driver with Thane Municipal Transport, had got married to the girl in December 2002. Soon after the marriage, his wife started complaining about living in a joint family. In 2004, she even left the house and went to her village in Dhule district. The worried husband asked a few relatives to intervene and met his wife’s family.

New Delhi: Children come before marital troubles -- that was the line taken by the Delhi high court in its handling of two lawsuits recently. Taking the view that children should not be caught in the crossfire between squabbling parents, the court, while deciding on the lawsuits, ruled that criminal cases filed by a woman against her husband, alleging cruelty over dowry and such offences, could be quashed.
If an accused is charged with offences under the Indian Penal Code (IPC), he or she cannot reach an out-of-court settlement, nor can the complaint be withdrawn. However, the court held that cases of dowry harassment or refusal to return gifts and other belongings of the wife (streedhan), though they fall under the ambit of the IPC, could be scrapped keeping in mind the couple's children.

"My wife wanted me to be a cuckold husband. I was pushed into wedlock by guile and threat. I'm the only son of my parents. What I suffered for 10 years in marriage will read like a film script. But, let me tell you, I suffered her abusing my sick mother as no man had ever endured. My mother, Santamma (66), is an acute diabetic, but my wife is so cruel that she bashed my mom's head on the wall, leading to serious injuries. She was in KC hospital and later in NIMHANS," narrating the story, K Suresh, 38, says he received no justice from the world.

अलीगढ़। देहलीगेट इलाके के एक मेडिकल स्टोर संचालक ने रविवार रात सल्फास की गोलियां निगल लीं। कुछ देर बाद परिजनों ने छटपटाते देखा तो माजरा मालूम चला। हकबकाए परिजनों ने देहलीगेट पुलिस को फौरन खबर दी। घंटेभर तक परिजन पुलिस के इंतजार में ही बैठे रहे। बाद में जुगाड़ करके उसे जेएन मेडिकल कालेज ले गए। वहां डॉक्टरों ने मृत करार दिया। परिजनों का आरोप है कि मृतक की पत्नी ने घर के सभी सदस्यों को दहेज प्रताड़ना के आरोप में फंसा दिया है। उसी से आहत होकर युवक ने खुदकुशी कर ली। बड़े भाई ने मृतक की बदायूं निवासी पत्नी, सास, ससुर और साले-साली के खिलाफ रिपोर्ट लिखाई है।
मोरनी वाला पेच निवासी द्वारिका प्रसाद ने अपने छोटे बेटे तरुण की पिछले साल 23 नवंबर को बदायूं निवासी प्राची उर्फ पारुल से शादी की थी। तरुण यहां खैर रोड पर मेडिकल स्टोर चलाता था। आर्थिक स्थिति अच्छी होते हुए भी मियां-बीवी के बीच अनबन होने लगी। बताते हैं कि पखवाड़ेभर पहले भी उनमें झगड़ा हुआ था। तभी पारुल अपने मायके चली गई। तरुण घरेलू कलह से खासा परेशान था। उधर, पारुल ने अपने पति, सास, ससुर समेत बाकी परिजनों पर दहेज मांगने का आरोप लगाते हुए बदायूं में मुकदमा दर्ज करा दिया।

Injustice bytes IT's Adams. Since the Domestic Violence Act 2005 came to the help of harried wives, more and more techie hubbies are getting drawn into cases involving their spouses.
Some 56 per cent of men, who get booked under the dowry prohibition Act or the domestic violence Act, happen to be those working in IT-BPO and Business, says Save Indian Family Foundation (SIFF), a pan-Indian forum for harried husbands. All of them happen to be in the age group 24-28 years. SIFF chairman Pandurang Katti says the findings came out in a sample survey they conducted of 1,200 aggrieved husbands last year.
