'Missing' married woman comes back after betrayed by lover
A 'missing' woman, whose husband was arrested on charges of her kidnap and murder, turned up at her parent's house after she was abandoned by the man with whom she eloped, police said here on Saturday.
"The woman, identified as Sheela, got married to Suraj in Shajanpur in 2005. The man then came to Ghaziabad along with wife for job. In 2008, Sheela disappeared from her house following which her parents lodged a report accusing Suraj of kidnapping and murdering here," SSP Raghubir Lal said.
Acting on the parents' complaint, police arrested Suraj and lodged him in jail where he remained for eight months before he was granted bail by Allahabad High Court, he said.
Last week, Sheela returned to her parents' home in Shajanpur and expressed desire to live with her husband.
According to police, the woman had eloped with her paramour and started living with him. However, her lover left her following which she came back.
Lal said her statements will be recorded in court and action will be taken against those police personnel who arrested the husband without making proper enquiry.
Meanwhile, Suraj refused to take his wife back, police said.
