VIZIANAGARAM: Vizianagaram police registered a case against an advocate, G Madhusudhan, for confining his wife Sai Supriya indoors for over a decade to keep her away from her parents.
It may be recalled that Vizianagaram police led by inspector of One-Town, Bendi Venkata Rao swung into action following court orders, and rescued Sai Supriya who was confined to her husband's house at Cantonment locality in Vizianagaram town, a week ago.
Madhusudhan of Vizianagaram and Sai Supriya hailing from Anantapur district, met in Puttaparthi and married in 2008. They have three children. He earlier worked in Bengaluru as a software professional. Later, the family settled in Vizianagaram town where Madhusudhan started to practise law in 2011.
Police said Madhusudhan tortured his wife by not allowing her to speak to others or go outside the house. Though Supriya's parents tried to contact their daughter, their efforts proved futile as Madhusudhan didn't allow them to meet her.
In 2019, the victim managed to contact Disha police in Vizianagaram and filed a complaint against her husband. But she withdrew the complaint after she got an assurance from her husband.
Supriya's parents filed a petition in the court seeking to rescue their daughter. Armed with the court order, police searched Madhusudhan's house and rescued Supriya.
Speaking to TOI, inspector of police, Bendi Venkata Rao, said that they registered a case against the advocate under Sections of Dowry Prohibition Act.
Sai Supriya is now with her parents.
