But Yasmin’s mother, a resident of Gulbarga, in Karnataka, approached the police the next day, alleging that Kalani’s aide, Abdul Karim alias Babdi, drove her over the edge with repeated abuse and assault. She also named Karim’s first wife as an abettor to the suicide in her complaint.
“Karim married Yasmin two years ago. They have an 11-month-old daughter. Yasmin’s mother claimed that Karim already had a 10-year-old son from his first wife and that he used to suspect Yasmin’s fidelity. He abused and assaulted her over this repeatedly,” said an officer from the Ulhasnagar police station. Karim also allegedly tormented his wife by taking their child away from her and often turning her out of their home.
“We have registered a case against the husband and the first wife,” said the official.
Shakeel Shaikh, senior inspector, Ulhasnagar police station, said Karim is a history-sheeter. “The Ulhasnagar police registered 16 cases against him from 1977 to 2009, including murder, attempt to murder and extortion. In 1984, he had been externed from Ulhasnagar.”
