In Bareilly, a Muslim woman accused her husband, Ashish Gangwar, of hiding his identity and later fleeing with their four-month-old child.
The woman, identified as Fatima, has filed a complaint at the Nawabganj police station, alleging that her husband deceived her by posing as a Muslim man before marriage.
“He Introduced Himself as Rahman”
According to the complaint, the accused, Ashish Gangwar, first contacted her on Instagram and introduced himself as “Rahman.” Their online friendship gradually turned into a relationship, and after about a year, the two got married through nikah.
Fatima alleged that she only discovered months after marriage that her husband was not Muslim but Hindu and had concealed his real identity. “When I came to know the truth, I was completely shocked,” she said.
Truth Revealed After Family Visit
She claimed the truth came out after the death of her father-in-law, when she visited her husband’s village. Locals allegedly informed her that his real name was Ashish, not Rahman.
This revelation led to disputes between the couple, though they later resumed living together. The couple also has a four-month-old son.
Husband Allegedly Flees With Infant
The situation took a serious turn when the couple recently travelled to Bareilly Junction, reportedly to go to Delhi. Fatima alleged that her husband suddenly disappeared from the station along with their infant son, leaving her behind.
“He took my child and ran away. I have no idea where my baby is,” she said.
The woman has made serious allegations, claiming that her husband threatened her and even intended to sell their child. She has demanded immediate action from the police to trace her son and ensure her safety.
Police Response and Investigation
Police have acknowledged the complaint and said that the matter is under investigation. According to officials, instructions have been given to examine the allegations and take necessary action.
However, the woman and her family have raised concerns about delays in police response, claiming that their initial complaints were not acted upon promptly.
