(Smt. Anuradha Saxena & Ors. v. State of M.P. & Anr.)
whenever, She made complaint to her husband, no
heed was paid by him and on the contrary, he
clearly said that if She wants to reside in the house,
then She will have to bear all such incidents. She
was not allowed to keep contacts with her parents.
Whenever, her parents came to Shivpuri, She was
not allowed to meet them. On 11-5-2016, at about
4-5 P.M., the respondent no.2 was alone in the
house. At that time, the applicant no. 3 came in the
room of the respondent no. 2 and said that She
should have physical relations with her so that She
can conceive. He also pressed her breasts. She
immediately pushed the applicant no. 3 and got
herself locked in another room. After the applicant
no.2 and 4 came back, the entire incident was
narrated to them, but they also started saying that
not only, her parents have not given any dowry but
on the other hand, She is unable to conceive also.
They also threatened that in case, the incident is
informed by her to her parents, then She will not be
allowed to stay in her matrimonial house. When her
parents asked her that why She is so serious, then
after lot of persuations, she informed her parents
about the incident and therefore, the F.I.R. was
lodged.
