In Haridwar, Uttarakhand, a latest instance of love jihad has come to light. Police have arrested man Azhar, a labor contractor, who married a Hindu woman by posing as a Hindu man. Following nine years of marriage, the wife filed a complaint with the Kankhal police station, accusing the guy of changing his name and concealing his religious affiliation. The police then apprehended the man and jailed him.
Azhar lured her into his love trap
According to the Senior Superintendent of Police, SSP Ajay Singh, the woman who is a resident of Shivapuram Rajagarden area made a complaint, that the accused Azhar Ahmed, son of Zafar, of Mohalla Nabab Tehsil Road Kasganj, Uttar Pradesh, has duped her into marrying him by hiding his religion. She said that she met Azhar, who lives in the Kasganj district of Uttar Pradesh, nine years ago while working for a company. Azhar had, however, identified himself as Rahul at that time. He had also claimed that he has no family. As their bond deepened, the two fell in love, got married, and went on to have two children. One of their kids is seven and the other one is four.
The wife discovered a second Aadhaar card of her husband a few months prior to the complaint, which contained his original name, his father’s name, and his home address. Nine years into their marriage, her husband finally revealed the truth and pushed her to become a Muslim. Not only that, but the accused spouse also threatened to kill her when she refused.
She had moved away from the accused and was living in the Kankhal area, for three months.
The woman hails from Delhi, but refused to disclose her address. She proclaimed that she has nothing to do with her family.
Two Aadhaar cards were discovered
Superintendent of Police (SP), City Swatantra Kumar provided information, stating that following the victim’s complaint, the police have taken the culprit into custody and brought him before the court. Furthermore, the accused was found to have two Aadhaar cards bearing the names of Azhar and Rahul.
