Pune: Pune court has strictly ordered the daughter-in-law to vacate the house owned by her parents-in-law within 15 days as she was causing mental and financial trouble to them.
As per the information, the parents-in-law are senior citizens and the daughter-in-law was staying with them. First-class court magistrate CK Shelke ordered that the daughter-in-law should leave the house owned by her parents-in-law within 15 days.
In this case, the daughter-in-law had filed a suit against her husband, mother-in-law, father-in-law & other relatives in the court of the Magistrate under the Domestic Violence Act in the year 2022.
During the hearing of that case, the court had ordered in August 2022 that a room in the bungalow should be given to the daughter-in-law. This bungalow belongs to the parents-in-law as the woman’s husband was staying in America for work, and three people were living in the bungalow.
In August 2022, the court ordered the daughter-in-law not to disturb the parents-in-law as they were senior citizens. However, the daughter-in-law kept harassing them physically and financially by vandalizing the household items.
While the hearing of this case was going on, the husband had decided to rent a house to the concerned woman. Accordingly, the court has ordered the husband to pay Rs 25,000 per month as rent to the wife. Tired & frustrated by the troubling situation of daughter-in-law, an application was filed in the magistrate court. The application had sought withdrawal of the court’s August 2022 order of allotting a room in the bungalow to the daughter-in-law.
After listening to both parties, the court has ordered the daughter-in-law to vacate the bungalow within fifteen days.
