Doctor complains of dowry harassment

30/10/2019 , Special Correspondent, Chennai

A 30-year-old woman doctor has lodged a complaint against an IT official, alleging that he and his father, a retired DSP, had harassed her for dowry even before their marriage.

The police said the doctor alleged that the groom’s family demanded that she register a ₹3.5-crore worth property in their name, and hand over ₹50 lakh in cash, even before marriage.

She claimed that her family had given ₹10 lakh to the boy’s family to buy a car. However, they started demanding the remaining ₹40 lakh.

The Thirumangalam All-Women police took her complaint, and has issued a CSR receipt. The police have summoned the groom’s family for interrogation.
