Arshad is a computer engineer working for a private company in Bhopal and Afsana is a graduate of Kota, Rajasthan. The duo got married on January 12 of this year.

The match was arranged through a matrimonial advertisement. After Afsana reached Arshad’s ancestral house in Pukhrayan, she was shocked to find out that Arshad was already married. Betrayed by Arshad, Afsana confronted her husband and her mother-in-law but in return, she was harassed for dowry, as she stated in her complaint. This went on until Arshad gave the triple talaq and disappeared..

In a viral video, Afsana pleaded to the UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for help and demanded strict action against these men who abandoned and abused their wives.

A case has been registered against Arshad, his maternal uncle Aqeel, father Nafeesul Hasan, and mother Parveen, based on Afsana’s complaint, according to the Circle Officer (CO) Priya Singh. The CO also ensured that the matter would be investigated and strict actions would be taken.
