A woman who approached the Oshiwara police to lodge an FIR against her husband for abducting their six-year-old daughter was repeatedly turned away. Having lodged a missing persons complaint for the child, they kept stalling against converting it to a complaint for abduction, even though the complainant told them that the man had asked for Rs 50,000 as ransom. The Oshiwara police have now been ordered by the Andheri Magistrate court to convert the missing persons complaint into an FIR for abduction.
