When she refused, he harassed her with support from his family, the police said quoting the contents of the FIR. Lopamudra had also alleged that there were attempts by her in-laws to kill her and her son after which she had reported the matter to Mahila Police six months ago. While police had summoned the industrialist¿s family, the Mishras had fled fearing arrest. The family had also got an interim protection from court.
After the interim protection was removed, police had issued a lookout circular against them. When police came to know that they were at their Kharavel Nagar house, a special squad raided the house and arrested Sabyasachi. Both Sabyasachi and his father Trailokya Nath Mishra rubbished the allegations. "I have always treated Lopamudra as my daughter and not as daughther-in-law. She has been mislead," said Trilokya Nath Mishra while his son totally rejected the allegation of wife-swapping.
