KOZHIKODE: The woman in the Pantheerankavu domestic harassment case has been beaten again. The woman identified as Neema (26) of Nochithara in Ernakulam sustained injuries on her eyes and lips. The woman is admitted in Kozhikode Medical College Hospital last night.

She was taken to the hospital in an ambulance from her husband Rahul’s house. After admitting her in the casualty, Rahul fled from the hospital. He was later taken into custody by the Palazhi police.

The woman has filed a complaint with the police. She has requested to go back to her own house.

The woman had earlier come forward against her husband for brutally beating her. The allegations were levelled a few days after their marriage. She had said that her husband had beaten her with a belt and strangled her with a charger cable. She had also alleged that he had demanded dowry. The police later registered a case.

However, after some days, the woman came forward again via a YouTube video, saying that her husband had not harassed her. She had filed a complaint against her husband Rahul saying that it was due to pressure from her family. She said that she had not been able to take a mature stand at that time. The woman said in the video that she was guilty of it and when she gave a confidential statement that day, she had to lie to the court due to pressure from her father. After this, she had filed an affidavit in the high court asserting that she has no complaint and then the case was quashed.
