A day after being harassed by two men and a woman for choosing to marry a Muslim man, the Khar resident recorded her statement with the police on Wednesday. The cops had also called the trio, but only the men came and claimed they visited her home to enquire about her father’s health. They denied being with a third visitor. They were let off with a warning. Activist Teesta Setalvad has now offered legal help to the woman.

While recording her statement, the Khar resident told the police that she is an adult and that no one has the right to object to her personal decision. The complainant had on Tuesday told mid-day that two men and a woman had come to her Khar West home and tried to brainwash her against marrying her fiance. But they were successful in scaring the parents, especially the father, who is now against their wedding.
