Jaipur : The brother of a 38-year-old woman, who died under mysterious circumstances, has filed a police complaint against her in-laws. He alleged they used to beat her up as she had not given birth to a boy child, police said.
The brother further alleged that the in-laws forced her to abort at least twice when illegal sex determination during pregnancy showed that the child would be a girl.
According to the police, Bhupendra Singh, a resident of Tilak Nagar in New Delhi, registered a first information report with Jhotwara police station on Thursday, a day after the death of his sister, Kuldeep Kaur.
Kuldeep had married one Jitendra Singh, living in Prem Nagar of Jhotwara area, in 2005.
"The in-laws told the police that Kuldeep was found dead after they returned from a function Wednesday. She had been left alone at home," said a police officer.
He added that the cause of death was being investigated. "We have conducted the post-mortem and the report is awaited," said the officer.
Her brother, Bhupendra, claimed in the complaint that Kuldeep had called him from the bathroom of her in-laws' house two days before her death.
"She was scared and said that she feared her husband would kill her. She had a three- year-old daughter. They wanted a boy and had forced her to abort girl children at least twice in the past," Bhupendra claimed.
