A man, along with his family members, allegedly tortured and tried to kill his wife when she asked for household expenses, police said. She was rushed to a nearby hospital.
Police have registered a case against five accused.
In the case filed by Fakhrul Nisa, a resident of Street No. 1 of Premier Mill Colony, it has been stated that Nisa was married to Asif 16 months ago. The couple have a two-month-old son.
Asif's attitude towards her had not been good from the very beginning, and he even used to beat her, said Fakhrul Nisa in her complaint.
