Court acts on letter on ‘slain’ husband

Hyderabad, Feb. 22: The AP High Court decided to convert into a writ, a complaint letter written by a woman who alleged that her in-laws had killed her husband. Ms R. Aruna wrote to the Chief Justice stating that she married one Rajesh Kumar on June 28, 2007. Her parents paid Rs 10 lakh worth gold jewellery and household articles as dowry. After a week, her father-in-law threatened her husband and he went missing the next day.
Her in-laws started harassing her for dowry and did not bother about her husband, she alleged. She said that the Saroornagar police had registered a case of dowry harassment on her complaint in January.
