AHMEDABAD: A 30-year-old woman from the Fatehwadi area of city on Friday filed a complaint with Vejalpur police alleging that her husband gave her instant divorce as she was constantly telling him to find a job. She said her husband is unemployed and the family is suffering from financial crisis.
In her complaint, the woman said that her husband was an autorickshaw driver and for past many days, he was not working anywhere.
Around two months ago, the woman asked for some money to pay school fees of their two children, but the man began abusing her and became angry.
When she told her to go out and find some job, he became more aggressive and uttered “talaq” (divorce) for three times. She said that he had left home then and returned on Friday but thrashed her again.
She said that when he was thrashing her, she called for help and some neighbours rushed there and rescued her. She then called up police control room and filed a complaint under the domestic violence act and the Muslim women (protection of rights on marriage) bill, 2017.
