Husband, in-laws assault, threaten social media influencer over her videos in Gandhinagar; booked

Ahmedabad: After being assaulted and threatened by her husband and in-laws, a social media influencer, who is a resident of Gujarat’s Gandhinagar, approached the police and filed a case against them.

According to the influencer, she had to face the cruelty of her husband and in-laws as they did not like her making videos and posting them on social media.

‘My in-laws suspected infidelity’

In her complaint, the woman said her husband’s family members started objecting to her making videos within a month of the wedding. The complainant further stated that her in-laws also doubted her character. “Despite informing my husband about the behaviour of my in-laws, my husband did not support me. He instead rebuked me for not helping with the domestic chores,” the woman said, adding that this was the second marriage of her husband.

“As I could not bear the torture, I returned to my parents’ house. But my husband came and requested me to come back. We then started staying separately from his parents. However, my in-laws would keep coming to our house and taunt me for making videos. I earn money by posting videos on social media. As my husband misused the money I earned, I stopped giving him. Therefore, I was beaten brutally by my husband and his family members,” the complainant said.
