It seems the guy had been torturing the young lady after having her marry him based on many tall promises. The police, however, had not taken any action. One can guess that the fear of being un-Secular would have haunted them.
“I met him through a common friend. He made several promises to me at the time of marriage but later started torturing me. I gave several complaints to the police but no action was taken,” she told reporters
However, the last straw that did him in was the act of announcing Triple Talaq. That got him arrested.
It is now time for Muslim women to stand up to the injustices being done to them for so many years!
