Almost everyday we read a newspaper report wherein a girl or a woman has been tortured and killed by her in-laws. The girls' families are the ones to come forward and register a case against the in-laws claiming that their daughter had been getting harassed for dowry and has subsequently been killed..
I would like to know what these “so-called” parents or blood relatives were doing for those 1,2, or n number of years when their daughter was being tormented. Then they left their daughter to suffer at the hands of her in-laws, but now when she is dead, they want her to get justice. What were they doing earlier sitting quietly? Saving their faces? Pretending in front of their relatives and neighbours that their daughter has a perfect life?? What a sham!
I think they are the ones against whom the first FIR needs to be lodged who callously left their daughters to lead a life of misery.. It is lamentable to say that she is actually better off now, being away from all these heartless people..
