The alleged dowry death of a 27-year-old government school teacher in Dehradun has led to the registration of a case against her husband, a personal secretary at the Uttarakhand Secretariat, and his family members, according to a TOI report. Police acted on a complaint filed by the victim's mother, who accused her husband and in-laws of subjecting her to physical and mental harassment over dowry demands following the marriage.
Based on a complaint filed by Seema Bhandari, police on Thursday registered an FIR under Section 80(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), which pertains to dowry death.
