"I have been "tortured" both mentally and physically by my husband. He has been "torturing me" for several years. I have been in the relationship just for the betterment of my children. But this man refuses to do the needful for my living", the woman said in the video.

She further alleged that despite registering an FIR, police have not taken any action against her husband.

The woman has registered two cases against her husband. One case is for house breaking, while another for criminal intimidation.
