An interfaith couple, who had registered last month to tie the knot under the Special Marriage Act, is now living in fear. On Tuesday morning, three people barged into the woman’s society in Khar West, and brainwashed her parents against her wedding with a Muslim man. After filing their application, the woman has been receiving calls and messages, and even got an anonymous letter, telling her to not marry her fiance.

Just a day after filing their application at the Registrar Of Marriage office in Khar West, the woman’s family received an anonymous letter via post. The letter, written in Marathi language and addressed to her father, mentioned how he can check the information of the marriage application online and find out that she was planning to marry a Muslim man. The letter also claimed that Muslim men sell off their Hindu wife in Saudi Arabia and asked him to stop his daughter’s immediately.
