A woman in Uttar Pradesh has received a letter from her husband in Germany in which her husband has divorced her by writing the word “talaq” thrice. This incident of triple talaq came to fore in the state capital Lucknow, where it was alleged that the woman will be sent back to her father’s place after a year if the in-laws don’t get the desired dowry.
After sending his wife to her father’s place, the man left for Germany and wrote a letter from there to call of the marriage. “There is no relationship between us,” the man wrote in the letter.
The woman was surprised and astonished. The triple talaq victim and her family went to the house of the man and pleaded before them, but they failed to get convinced. After this, the woman registered a case in Vibhuti Khand police station. The investigation into the matter is underway.
According to police, the woman, a resident of Vikrant Khand got married on 4 February, 2021, to a resident of Navi Mumbai Kareem Maqbul. According to her, at the time of their wedding, around 12 lakh 50 thousand ruppes were spent.
She further claimed that from the next day of her marriage, her in-laws started to taunt her for not getting the desired dowry, however, she continued to remain at her husband’s place.
The woman further alleged that her in-laws used to abuse her husband too and when he used to object their behaviour then they used to beat him. Few days after the marriage, Kareem Makbul left for Germany, after which her father-in-law started to harass her more, the woman said.
She said her in-laws forcefully sent her to her maternal home and on 16 April, she reveived a letter from her husband in which he gave divorce or triple talaq to her.
