Indian international wrestler Rani Rana has lodged a complaint against her husband after facing harassment due to dowry. She also filed a case against her in-laws for restricting her from participating in wrestling.
Following the complaint from Rani, the Superintendent of Police SP Meena, tried to settle the issue between the couple through couples counselling but it did not work out. The police had filed an FIR at the moment and further investigation is underway.
According to her complaint, Rani has been facing harassment for years now and things got worse in May when she was beaten by her husband. She faced harassment from her husband's family while returning from a conference in May. Things got heated and her husband ended up twisting her hands.
Her mother, who was present during the incident, had recorded the entire event and it served as major evidence in the case. Rani Rana lives with her mother at the moment. Notably, the wrestler also served as the brand ambassador for the 'Beti Bachao Beti Padhao' initiative of the Central Government.
