The two were married in June 2023 in Ahmedabad after a brief courtship arranged by their families. Before the marriage, the woman's parents had given the would-be groom Rs 51,000 as a traditional custom. After marriage, when the couple was on a trip abroad, the man allegedly consumed liquor regularly, verbally abused the complainant and even clicked inappropriate photos during private moments. Upon returning to India, they lived with her parents for a day before the man returned to Canada, promising to process her spousal visa, the complaint states.
The woman stated in her complaint that she later found out that her husband had not only failed to submit her visa documents but had also demanded Rs 50 lakh from her parents, claiming that the dowry was insufficient. He allegedly pressured her to send inappropriate photos and threatened divorce if she refused. He then blocked her number and sent a WhatsApp message announcing separation. The woman alleges that her husband was in a relationship with a woman in Canada, whom he married and has a tattoo of her name.
She claims his entire family was aware of his first wedding before their marriage. She also learned that her name was listed as non-accompanying in her husband's Canadian immigration records.
She has demanded legal action against her husband and mother-in-law for harassment, misrepresentation, and violation of marriage promises.
