AHMEDABAD: An elderly woman was allegedly thrashed and dragged out of her house by her daughter and son- in-law in Gujarat’s Chhotaudepur district, police said on Monday, NDTV reported.
A purported video clip of the incident, which took place in Velpur village under Sankheda taluka, around 200km from Ahmedabad, surfaced on social media platforms, prompting the police to register an offence.
In the video, a man and a woman are seen beating a frail old woman who is lying on the ground in a hut. The man tries to tie the elderly woman with a rope which she resists. Upon this, the woman’s daughter drags her and the victim’s son-in-law hauls her and throws her out of the hut.
The video was recorded on Sunday, said the Superintendent of Police in-charge of Chhotaudepur, Dharmendra Sharma.“We sent a police team to Velpur village to probe the incident after the video surfaced. The persons seen beating up the woman in the video are her daughter and son-in-law,” he said.
