According to details, the son of the tortured woman wanted to contract free-will marriage with a girl. This got the family of the girl furious, who stormed to the boy’s house and subject his mother to vicious torture.

The hairs of the woman were trimmed by the attackers. The woman lodged her complaint with the police, but they have not taken any action, so far, the woman added.
