NEW DELHI: A man from Hardoi district in Uttar Pradesh was arrested on Saturday for allegedly cutting his wife's braid while she was at a beauty parlour getting her eyebrows done.
The incident came to light after the woman's father, Radhakrishna, lodged a complaint accusing her husband, Rampratap, of dowry harassment.
Radhakrishna revealed that his daughter's marriage to Rampratap took place approximately a year ago. He stated that his daughter faced continuous harassment from her in-laws over dowry demands, including requests for household appliances such as a refrigerator and cooler.
Prior to the incident, Radhakrishna had brought his daughter to stay at his residence for a week.
Circle officer (CO) Ravi Prakash stated, "The situation escalated when, as alleged by the father, his son-in-law, Rampratap, arrived at the beauty parlour with three companions and cut his daughter's braid."
Whilst the father maintains the incident is connected to dowry harassment, local residents suggest that Rampratap acted out of anger upon learning about his wife's visit to the beauty parlour for eyebrow grooming.
Ravi confirmed that investigations into the matter are ongoing.
