NAGPUR: On a complaint filed by Priyanka, the Pachpaoli police have booked her husband Prabhakar Ubade, 42, for allegedly cheating and causing her to miscarry without consent. The 22-year-old woman was 12 weeks pregnant.

Priyanka claimed that Ubade cheated by giving her abortion pills instead of painkillers. She told TOI that Ubade had also lied to her about her relationship with Indira who was his late brother's wife. "He said he wanted to take care of his brother's four kids and hence was staying with Indira. Actually, he was having an affair with her."

Being neighbours in Imambada, Priyanka and Ubade fell in love. He even promised Priyanka's family that he would give them money to buy a television on instalments. Ubade soon proposed marriage to her.

"On June 6 last year, Ubade took me to Koradi temple and we got married the same day. Two of his friends, Gayatri and Raj were witnesses before the priest. After the marriage, we even rented a house and everything seemed fine," said Priyanka.

However, her happiness lasted only for a month. In July, Ubade's family came to know about his marriage to Priyanka and forcibly entered their house. "They abused me, beat me up badly and threatened me too. They wanted me to leave Ubade," she said.

Strangely, Ubade chose to go along with his relatives. A hapless Priyanka then complained at theAjni police station. On being questioned by the police, Ubade promised to provide maintenance money for Priyanka and convinced them to not take any action. It was decided that for a few months Priyanka would stay at her sister's house in Nashik and Ubade with Indira in the city.

In August, Ubade and his friends went to Nashik and convinced Priyanka to return to him. "He suggested we marry again legally. This time, we got married in a court in the presence of my parents," she said.

This time, Ubade and Priyanka rented a house in Pachpaoli. Soon, Priyanka learnt about her pregnancy.

Happiness continued to elude the couple as Indira landed up at their house again. "Again, I called the police and Ubade assured them that he would stay with me," said Priyanka who had become weak due to the tension and had to be hospitalized many times.

On December 14, Priyanka suffered some pain and asked Ubade to take her to a doctor. "He came after a few minutes and told that the doctor was not available but he had bought some pills to reduce the pain. The pills were covered in white paper. I trusted him and gulped the pills but after a few hours, I came to know that it was for the termination of my pregnancy," told Priyanka.

Priyanka said that since she was bleeding, Ubade rushed her to a hospital immediately. While Priyanka was hospitalized for two days, Ubade, vacated their rented room.

"I spoke to him after being discharged and he rudely said that he had left me. This time, I decided to file a police complaint," said Priyanka.

Priyanka alleged that twice she had gone to file a police complaint, first at Imambada and then at Ajni, but was sent back. Her parents claimed that the complaint was filed only after they approach city police chief, KK Pathak.
