During the attack, the woman sustained a cut on her wrist and abdomen and was later taken to a nearby hospital after the police arrived at the spot.
Another CCTV clip has also surfaced, showing the same man beating the woman on a road in an unidentified area.
The woman revealed that she and her husband got married in 2009 in a love marriage. However, they divorced in 2014 due to family issues. Later, her husband told her that he had divorced her because of his mother’s pressure and asked her to live with him again.
She gave birth to a son in December that same year and decided to continue living with her husband for the sake of their child. She stated that even after the divorce, she remained with him for their son’s future.
The woman alleged that her husband had been pressuring her to transfer two houses—registered in her name—to him and would often physically assault her over the issue.
She said she got a job in 2019, after which her husband started living with her again. However, she alleged that he would often drink alcohol and physically abuse her. The accused has been identified as Sahil Sharma.
The woman claimed she had previously approached the police, but no action was taken. She alleged that her husband wanted her to transfer both properties to his name.
According to her, she was attacked with a sharp blade during the latest incident. She demanded strict action against her husband and his family, and said that her husband’s father is a Station House Officer (SHO).
Her husband was seen fleeing the scene after the attack. Police reached the spot and took her to a nearby government hospital. Although her injuries were not life-threatening, she sustained cuts on her wrist and abdomen.
The woman also alleged that her husband had beaten her on October 4, for which a Medico-Legal Report (MLR) was prepared. She said she possesses a short video clip of that incident but claimed that no action was taken despite her complaint.
She added that her husband had become emboldened and now attacked her publicly with knives in the market. She has appealed for strict legal action against her husband, stating that she fears for her life.
