AGRA/FIROZABAD: A Muslim woman and mother of two has alleged that her husband gave her 'triple talaq' and threw her out of home, when she asked for Rs 20 for her daughters, yet again raising controversy over the (triple talaq) practice.
The incident took place in Rasulpur area of Firozabad in Uttar Pradesh.
The woman identified as Shazia is currently living in the home of her husband's neighbours. Married five years ago, Shazia's husband is a craftsman at a glass bangle factory. Hailing from Etawah, the woman was the only child of her parents who died after her marriage.
According to Shazia, "For the last couple of years my husband had been harassing me in order to get rid of me as I gave birth to two daughters. Recently, I came to know that he was having illicit relationship with a woman whom he wanted marry. Unable to handle torture at my husband's hands, when I left home to commit suicide, policemen rescued me and took me back home."
"After returning home, my husband again started harassing me, but I tried to make myself strong for the sake of two daughters. On Saturday, when I asked him to give Rs 20 to buy some edible items for two girls, he got infuriated and slapped me. Later, when I confronted him, he gave me triple talaq and pushed me out of home," she said.
Shazia further claimed, "I'm worried about my daughters. The younger one is eight months old, while the elder is four years old. My husband has threatened to make money by selling them."
After the incident, Shazia sought help from local police, but according to her, police did not listen to her plea.
When TOI contacted SSP Firozabad Ajay Kumar on the matter, he said, "We are yet to receive a written complaint in the matter. But it would be better for the woman if she approaches district magistrate office."
