VADODARA: A woman living on
Dabhoi Road
on Friday accused her husband of physical assault and criminal intimidation after taking away her
gold jewellery
and money. The woman Hemlata Thumbadiya alleged that her husband
Alpesh
threw her and their six-year-old daughter out of the house.
Hemlata told police that took away her gold jewellery, Rs 1.2 lakh cash from her and a similar amount from her father as he had to pay off his debts to moneylenders. Originally a resident of Palanpur, Alpesh kept changing his addresses in different cities as he had failed to repay money to lenders.
Hemlata alleged that Alpesh lied about his profession. She learnt about his borrowing habits when lenders came knocking on their door.
When Hemlata asked him to find a decent job instead of borrowing money, Alpesh allegedly thrashed her and made her leave the house in May 2018. Six months later, the couple settled the issues after their parents intervened and Alpesh assured that he will return the jewellery and cash.
The couple then started living at Waghodiya-Dabhoi ring road. However, Alpesh, instead of finding a job continued borrowing money due to which loan sharks started threatening them.
Again when Hemlata asked him to stop borrowing money, Alpesh pushed her out of the house in March last year and since then Hemlata and her daughter are living with her parents. Hemlata then approached the family court seeking maintenance amount from Alpesh.
The accused then started threatening Hemlata to withdraw the court case. To pressurize her, Alpesh even sent fake cops at her home, she alleged. As Alpesh continued to pressurize her, Hemlata lodged a complaint against him at Mahila police station. yesterday Alspesh has been booked for cruelty, assault and criminal intimidation.
