After she told her husband, he threatened to divorce her and assaulted her. As the victim was five months pregnant during the incident, she did not tell anyone. Meanwhile, the victim gave birth to a child and informed her mother about the atrocities. Her mother reassured her and took her to Satara police station on Friday. A case was filed against the brother in law, husband and mother-in-law. Sub-inspector Anita Fasate is investigating the case.
