MORADABAD: Back home with her in-laws at Kanth in Moradabad after 10 days, the 22-year-old woman who was sent away to a shelter while police investigated her husband for “love jihad”, hospitalised with pregnancy-related complications and released on Monday night said she was tortured at the shelter. She added that she miscarried after she was administered injections and was discharged without her ultrasound report. While the hospital denied the insinuation that abortion was induced, it did say that there appears to be a “risk to the baby” because of the symptoms.
“I was taken to the shelter at 2.30am on December 5. I was tortured there,” she said on Tuesday. I had sudden abdominal pain and they took me to a hospital on December 11. The doctor there gave me injections, after which I started bleeding lightly.
